Abstract: Using both numerical and analytical tools we study various features of static, spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system. In particular, we investigate the possible shapes of their mass-energy density and find that they can be multi-peaked, we give numerical evidence and a partial proof for the conjecture that the Buchdahl inequality supr>02m(r)/r<8/9, m(r) the quasi-local mass, holds for all such steady states--both isotropic {em and} anisotropic--, and we give numerical evidence and a partial proof for the conjecture that for any given microscopic equation of state--both isotropic {em and} anisotropic--the resulting one-parameter family of static solutions generates a spiral in the radius-mass diagram.
