The discussion centers around the request for a Matlab file to solve stellar structure equations, specifically to address a debate about their applicability to neutron stars. Participants express skepticism about the effectiveness of a Matlab file in resolving the argument, noting that the fundamental physics governing neutron stars differs significantly from that of conventional stars. They emphasize that the input parameters for neutron stars would require substantial modifications to the equations typically used for regular stars. Suggestions are made to reference specific academic papers that provide insights into modeling neutron stars, including the need to use the equation of state for a degenerate neutron gas. Overall, the conversation highlights the complexities involved in applying standard stellar structure equations to neutron stars and the limitations of relying solely on a Matlab file for this purpose.
