Abstract
The effect of a poloidal magnetic field on the structure of isothermal gas spheres in hydrostatic equilibrium under the pressure of partially degenerate relativistic electrons and radiation has been considered. An equation of state involving Fermi-Dirac functionsF 2(ψ) andF 3(ψ) has been used. Modifications to the values of various structural parameters have been tabulated for the cases ψ c =0, 2, 3, 5, and 10, ψ c being the central degeneracy parameter.
