Stellar Structure

Scientific paper

Eddington's internal constitution of the stars remains both a classic and in parts a tour de force. As a paradigm for a homogeneous star in thermal equilibrium, Eddington's 'standard model' is better replaced by Cowling's point-convective model. Jeans ultimately accepted the essence of Eddington's approach, unlike Milne, whose lasting contributions were to the theory of stellar atmospheres. Some of Milne's arguments turn out to be relevant not to main sequence stars, but to pre-main sequence or to evolved, post-main sequence stars.
