Domain-specific

• Chandrasekhar's white dwarf equation
  • Chandrasekhar's white dwarf equation is the dimensionless nonlinear initial-value problem \(\eta^{-2}\frac{d}{d\eta}(\eta^2\varphi')+(\varphi^2-C)^{3/2}=0\), with regular-center data \(\varphi(0)=1\), \(\varphi'(0)=0\), and stellar surface at the first \(\eta\) where \(\varphi=\sqrt C\).
