Role of Structure Scalars on the evolution of Compact Objects in Palatini $f(R)$ Gravity

Abstract

The utmost concern of this article is the construction of modified scalar functions (structure scalars) by taking Palatini $f(R)$ gravitational theory into account. At first, a general formalism is established in which we assess gravitational stellar equations by putting into use the Palatini's technique. Later, from the perspective of tilted observer, we Lorentz boosted the components of energy-momentum tensor using relative velocity $\omega$. To examine the physical as well as mathematical aspects of the fluid source, we carry out a detailed analysis of kinematical variables by evaluating shear tensor and scalar, four-acceleration and expansion scalar. For the fluid content inside our spherical star, we inferred the mass function (geometric mass) and the active gravitational mass. Raychaudhuri equation, Bianchi identities in addition to few other equations are worked out to discern the structure formation and analyze the object's evolutionary stages. The Riemann tensor is then broken up orthogonally to set up few scalar functions connected with fundamental physical characteristics of the fluid source like energy density, effects of tidal forces and anisotropic stresses etc.
