It was first discovered mathematicallytzlbw(pebc hpg*( (3 ( by Schwarzschild in 1916 after Einstein published his general relativity theory. It can be calculated from a star's mass M as: $R = 2GM/c^2$. Take the radius of both stars A and B as the Schwarzschild radius. If the mass of star A is twice as much as the mass of star B, the average density of star A, compared to star B will be
