The Chandrasekhar's Equation for Two-Dimensional Hypothetical White Dwarfs

TL;DR

This paper extends Chandrasekhar's white dwarf model to a hypothetical two-dimensional scenario, providing a theoretical exploration suitable for advanced physics education.

Contribution

It introduces a novel two-dimensional formulation of white dwarf structure based on Chandrasekhar's equations, a previously unexplored theoretical extension.

Findings

Formulated a two-dimensional version of Chandrasekhar's equation.

Demonstrated the hypothetical nature of two-dimensional white dwarfs.

Proposed the model as an educational tool for physics students.

Abstract

In this article we have extended the original work of Chandrasekhar on the structure of white dwarfs to the two-dimensional case. Although such two-dimensional stellar objects are hypothetical in nature, we strongly believe that the work presented in this article may be prescribed as Master of Science level class problem for the students in physics.
