Answer: In particular, electron degeneracy pressure is what supports white dwarfs against gravitational collapse, and the Chandrasekhar limit (the maximum mass a white dwarf can attain) arises naturally due to the physics of electron degeneracy.
Explanation:
Degeneracy pressure keeps a white dwarf from collapsing under its own gravity.
Electron degeneracy pressure is a particular manifestation of the more general phenomenon of quantum degeneracy pressure.
The maximum mass that a white dwarf can support against collapse is 1.4 solar masses due to the Chandrasekhar limit.
