The problem of finding exact solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations for static distributions of a charged sphere has attracted wide attention. A general solution of the Einstein-Maxwell field equations has been obtained for a static charged gas sphere having maximum matter density at the center. The density decreases along the radius and finally becomes zero at the surface of the sphere. Although this research is a modification of the author's earlier work, it provides scientists with a tool for further progress. 13 refs.
