107. The white dwarf mass-radius relation
Creators
Description
Theories of white dwarf interiors predict a relation between mass and radius that depends on their core composition and temperature. But accurate empirical confirmation is challenging. Results from Gaia DR2 show good agreement with predictions, confirming stellar degeneracy, while raising new questions.
