近年来天文学在观测和理论上的进展使人们对白色矮星的性质有了新的认识。然而，它们的内部结构是模糊的，特别是关于电状态和其中所含的物质。为了阐明这些观点，有必要研究星星中各种元素的离解平衡。为此，我们首先做以下假设。(i)白色矮星内部处于费米和狄拉克统计意义下的理想气体简并态。(ii)各种元素的所有原子核都被剥夺了原子核电子（价电子）。(iii)所有的元素都是由质子和电子按一定的比例组成的。(i)首先由Fowler阐述，随后由Stoner、安德森和米尔恩采用。2）（ii）是星星内部巨大热量的直接结果。(iii)被认为是Prout的理论。设E、P、e、U分别代表原子核、质子、电子和生成热。
The recent advancement of astronomy both observational and theoretical has thrown a new light on the property of white dwarfs . Their internal constitution is however obscure especially as regards the electrical state and the matter contained in them. To elucidate these points, it is necessary to investigate the dissociative equilibrium of various elements in the star. For this we make firstthe following assumptions. (i) The interior of the white dwarf is in the degenerate state of perfect gases in the sense of thestatistics of Fermi and Dirac. (ii) All atomic nuclei of various elements are stripped of the extranuclear electrons (valency electrons). (iii) All elements are formed of protons and electrons, in a definite proportion. (i) was enunciated first by Fowler" and subsequently adopted by Stoner, Anderson and Milne.2) (ii) is the direct outcome from the immense hotness of the star interior. (iii) is regarded as Prout's theory. Let E, P, e, U represent respectively a nucleus, a proton, an electron, and the heat of formation.
