A model for the dynamics of gaseous stars is introduced and formulated by the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system for compressible, reacting gases. Precisely the evolution of stars is here governed by the conservation of mass, the balance of momentum and entropy, the two species chemical kinetics equation while the gravitational potential \(\Psi\) is determined by the Poisson equation. The combined quasineutral and inviscid limit of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system is in the torus \(\Pi\) is then investigated. The main achievement of this work is the proof of the formal convergence of the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system for compressible reacting gases to an appropriate incompressible Euler equations of ideal reacting fluids for global weak solutions by performing the combined quasineutral and inviscid limit.
