G'day MetorWayne
I asked the question to find what you know. I did not say I did not have an idea.
As for your explanation from wiki. Is that the best you can do. Because if that's it. You will need to read up on the subject.

How could you have (supposedly) read all these technical papers but have never stumbled across the concept of the Chandrasekhar mass? Since a star such as a White Dwarf is made of degenerate matter, where all the electrons are compressed into their lowest energy levels, you can reach a mass where this becomes unstable and the star will explode. Read up on the Pauli Exclusion Principle and the concept of degenerate matter. You have a lot of basic physics missing that you need to get down before you start reading journal articles. You can reread the papers all you want until you think you understand them, but it is clear that you really don't, you just convince yourself that you do.
This statement has no meaning its all over the place.
I'm well read on Pauli Excusion Principle, degenerate and condensed matter and most of the transion phases and their quantum critical points. Also the property of double layers and reconnection magnetic fields creating the dipole jets that we observe in Neutron stars and so called black holes. Also the property of quark matter that creates the spinor. So please do not tell me what I do not know. So far the responses have been so elementary a primary child could have made them.
Hahaha are you for real? If you don't know the connection between everything I said, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Double layers, "reconnection magnetic fields", quark matter, etc have NOTHING AT ALL to do with what I was saying.
If you understand the Pauli exclusion principle, then you would already know how a star composed of electron degenerate matter, i.e. a white dwarf, could explode when you add mass to it. You may be "well read" on those subjects, but you have certainly not understood anything you read.
Also, if all our responses have been so elementary a primary child could have made them, why aren't you capable of responding intelligently to them in a coherent manner? I am torn between laughing at you and feeling bad for you. As a somewhat obscure late-90s trivia computer game title would say, "You Don't Know Jack".
Michael, keeping this thread on topic is impossible when the creator doesn't understand anything relevant we post and just goes off on tangents about how much more intelligent/well-read he is than we are.
