The following questions and comments were made:
Shantanu: Just a comment. If Mike Nauenberg was attending this talk he would have disagreed that Chandra used a more sophisticated model. I also belive that Nauenberg has pointed out that the maximum limit was calculated by Stoner and Anderson before Chandra's trip to England.
Shantanu: Just another historical comment. A year before Oppenheimer's seminal work, an obscure Indian physicist Datt (about whom very little is known) came to the same conclusion in 1938. His paper was published in a German journal , but since has been translated in English. English translation of Datt's paper
