The only model of the stellar relaxation oscillator I know of is a variable star.. Cepheid variables, for example.
The pulsations are the result of oscillations, involving ionisation... It could be called the relaxation oscillator.. but it is NOT of electrical/electronics type.

Another example is Sun's 11 years cycle...

It is interesting that EU people are not mentioning it at all :-)
