For 10 points, name this class of stars, the endpoint for intermediate-mass main sequence stars, that are phenomenologically small stars that giving off incoherent light
Hoyle discovered that one theory about these objects does not apply in non-uniformly rotating examples. Eddington predicted the first observed gravitational redshift from an object of this kind, initially as a way to discredit Öpik's measurement of its density. These stars are supported by Fermi pressure. Found in the lower left of a standard Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, these stars are generally bounded in mass by a quantity equal to about 1.44 solar masses and known as the Chandrasekhar limit.
