The approximate cooling rate of these objects varies with the 7/2 power of their temperature, which is generally on the order of 10-to-the-7 Kelvins.

An angular momentum-forbidden resonance stops these systems from fusing neon from their abundant carbon and oxygen. These bodies have electron mean free paths on the order of the electrons' de Broglie wavelength. Their radius varies with the minus third power of their mass. A polytropic index of approximately 3 was used in the Lane-Emden equation to derive one central property of these stars. They can carbon detonate to form a Type Ia supernova once their mass exceeds that value, the Chandrasekhar limit. For 10 points, name these electron-degenerate stellar remnants that occupy the lower left of the H-R diagram, one example of which is Sirius B.
