Abstract

Current uncertainty about the most massive observed stars has led to a reexamination of the most massive star that is stable against radial pulsation.The nuclear energy generation equations in the INA linear, nonadiabatic code have been considerably improved, so that it is now appropriate to redo the study to determine the maximtun mass of a ZAMS star that will be stable against pulsation.
