AbstractThe internal structure of a white dwarf may be changed by a strong magnetic field. A local model of the electrons is constructed within a thermal density matrix formalism, essentially a Heisenberg magnetism model. This results in a matrix Fermi function which is used to construct an isothermal model of the electron crystal. The central density of the crystal is 108kg/m3 independent of the magnetic field within the plasma and therefore lower than the relativistic density, whereas this density is constant until the Fermi momentum x f = 0.3 * me * c. Chandrasekhar masses up to 1.44 * 1.4M0 are possible for polarizations of the plasma zone lower than 0.5, if the temperature is close to the Curie point, whereas the crystal itself destabilizes the white dwarf dependent on temperature.
