  5. Including the effects of internuclear forces will not qualitatively change our results. Nuclei will disappear at a lower density than that we have considered. This will have the effect of increasing the radius of our «core».

  6. The Ricci scalar is not an additive quantity, of course, but this ansatz ensures that our eq. (3) yields the correct solution for φ in the region exterior to the star. See ref. (1).G. Domokos, M. M. Janson andS. Kövesi-Domokos: JHU preprint, to be published inNature.
