Description

We numerically construct models of spherically symmetric relativistic stellar clusters with anisotropic distribution functions. Newtonian solutions obtained in Paper I are generalized as isotropic Maxwellian ones with energy cutoff in their distribution function. We consider distributions with different levels of anisotropy and discuss some general characteristics of the models.
