Isothermal spheres in general relativity and Horava-type gravity

We construct a toy model for isothermal spheres in Horava gravity, which includes Einstein's gravity if a parameter is appropriately chosen. The equations for the isothermal spheres are derived from the partition function of the gravitating particle system. We confirm that the Newtonian limit of the system coincides with the model of the well-known isothermal sphere. The stability of the isothermal sphere is found to be sensitive to the energy density at the center of the sphere.
