Generalised isothermal models with strange equation of state

Abstract
We consider the linear equation of state for matter distributions that may be applied to strange stars with quark matter. In our general approach the compact relativistic body allows for anisotropic pressures in the presence of the electromagnetic field. New exact solutions are found to the Einstein-Maxwell system. A particular case is shown to be regular at the stellar centre. In the isotropic limit we regain the general relativistic isothermal universe. We show that the mass corresponds to values obtained previously for quark stars when anisotropy and charge are present.
