The Maximum Mass of Ideal White Dwarfs (original) (raw)
NASA/ADS
Abstract
The theory of the polytropic g~is spheres in conjunction with the equation of state of a relativ~stically degenerate electron-gas leads to a unique value for the mass of a star built on this model. This mass (=0.910) is interpreted as representing the upper limit to the mass of an ideal white dwarf
