Common card · No. 414224

In astrophysics, the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff (TOV) equation constrains the structure of a spherically symmetric body of isotropic material which is in static gravitational equilibrium, as modeled by general relativity. The equation is d P d r = − G m r 2 ρ ( 1 + P ρ c 2 ) (...
