Equilibrium of a static charged perfect fluid sphere. (English) Zbl 0543.76062

Summary: A study is developed for treating Einstein-Maxwell’s equations, applied to a static perfect fluid sphere with charge, in a such a manner to generalize the J. R. Oppenheimer and G. M. Volkoff hydrostatic equilibrium equation [Phys. Rev., II. Ser. 55, 374-381 (1939; Zbl 0020.28501)]. We suggest reasons which could make the generalization of this equation inapplicable. It is shown that Einstein-Maxwell’s equations predict such special solutions.
