We study stable positive radially symmetric solutions for the Lane-Emden system $-\Delta u=v^p$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $-\Delta v=u^q$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$, where $p,q\geq 1$. We obtain a new critical curve that optimally describes the existence of such solutions.
Keywords: singular solutions., stable solutions, critical curve, radially symmetric solutions, Lane-Emden system.
