Recent developments in the studies of the transport processes and the neutrino emission processes in the interior of white dwarfs are reviewed. Special emphasis is placed upon the accuracy of the calculations. Ionic correlation effects play an essential role in the transport processes and the neutrino bremsstrahlung process. The Weinberg-Salam theory is the basis for the calculation of the neutrino emission processes.
