Description

It is studied the stability of strange dwarfs - superdense stars, which have a small self-retaining core $M_{core}<0.02M_{\odot}$ containing strange quark matter and extensive crust consisting of atomic nuclei and degenerate electron gas. The mass and radius of such stars are of the same order as for usual white dwarfs. A comparison of the mass and radius of theoretical models of strange dwarfs with observational data obtained by the program HIPPARCOS is made, the most probable candidate for strange dwarfs is determined.
