F.X.Timmes, my vitae
The code given below generates models of general relativistic white dwarfs in hydrostatic equilibrium. A cold (perfectly degenerate) electron gas equation of state is included. The code is presently set to generate the central density - mass plot below. Uncommenting a few lines will generate the last two plots. A quasi-famous quote from Icko Iben about white dwarf models comes to mind ...
