Physics of Compact Stars

This thesis starts with a pedagogical introduction to the study of white dwarfs and neutron stars. We will present a step-by-step study of compact stars in hydrostatic equilibrium leading to the equations of stellar structure. Through the use of a simple finite-difference algorithm, solutions to the...
