We have content for each. Background: first line: "The equation of state of zero-temperature matter in complete nuclear equilibrium is given for mass densities below 5 X 10^14 g." That is background context. Purpose: from [Purpose, Mechanism] line: "We redetermine, taking into account the effect of the Coulomb lattice and using more recent nuclear mass extrapolations, the sequence of equilibrium nuclides present at mass densities between 10^? and 4.3 X 10^11 g, the point of neutron drip; and calculate the equation of state here." So purpose: to redetermine equilibrium nuclides sequence and calculate EOS. Mechanism: multiple lines: [Mechanism] lines: first: "For densities between 4.3 X 10^11 and 5 X 10^14 g the equation of state is taken from the calculations of Baym, Bethe, and Pethick; included is an extension of the equation of state to still higher densities, taken from the calculations of Pandharipande, which include the effects of hyperons." Also: "We calculate zero-temperature white-dwarf and neutron-star models for the equation of state." Also: "Moments of inertia, surface deformations, and mass quadrupole moments are calculated for slowly rotating neutron stars." So mechanism: use existing EOS calculations, extend to higher densities, compute white dwarf and neutron star models, calculate moments etc.

We redetermine, taking into account the effect of the Coulomb lattice and using more recent nuclear mass extrapolations, the sequence of equilibrium nuclides present at mass densities betv en 10' and 4.3 X 1011 g , the point of neutron drip; and calculate the equation of state here. For densities between 4.3 X 1011 and 5 X 1014 g the equation of state is taken from the calculations of Baym, Bethe, and Pethick; included is an extension of the equation of state to still higher densities, taken from the calculations of Pandharipande, which include the effects of hyperons. We calculate zero-temperature white-dwarf and neutron-star models for the equation of state. The maximum stable white-dwarf mass, the Chandrasekhar limit, is 1.00 io. The lightest stable neutron star has a mass 0.0925 M0 and a central density 1.55 X 1014 g cm-3 neutron stars between 0.0925 and 0.11 M0 are entirely solid. Moments of inertia, surface deformations, and mass quadrupole moments are calculated for slowly rotating neutron stars.
