A Free Boundary Problem in the Theory of the Stars

arXiv:astro-ph/0012496

Abstract

We investigate numerically models of the static spherically symmetric boson-fermion stars in the scalar-tensor theory of gravity with massive dilaton field. The proper mathematical model of such stars is interpreted as a nonlinear two-parametric eigenvalue problem with unknown internal boundary. To solve this problem the Continuous Analogue of Newton Method is used.
