Mass-radius relations of white dwarfs at finite temperatures

TL;DR

This paper develops mass-radius relations for white dwarfs considering rotation and finite temperatures, comparing theoretical models with observational data to enhance understanding of white dwarf properties.

Contribution

It introduces a comprehensive model that incorporates both rotation and finite temperature effects into white dwarf mass-radius relations, which were previously studied separately.

Findings

Theoretical models align well with observational data.

Rotation and temperature significantly influence white dwarf structure.

Finite temperature effects lead to larger radii at given masses.

Abstract

We construct mass-radius relations of white dwarfs taking into account the effects of rotation and finite temperatures. We compare and contrast the theoretical mass-radius relations with observational data.
