Abstract
Heavy-neutrino (or neutralino) stars are studied using the general relativistic equations of hydrostatic equilibrium and the relativistic equation of state for degenerate fermionic matter. The Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations are then generalized to include a system of degenerate neutrino and neutralino matter that is gravitationally coupled. The properties and implications of such an interacting astrophysical system are discussed in detail.Keywords
