Neutron stars in gravity

J. C. N. de Araujo, H. G. M. Fortes

Modified theories of gravity based on the symmetric teleparallel framework have recently attracted considerable attention as viable alternatives to General Relativity. In this cont…

Polytropic Stars in covariant formulation

J. C. N de Araujo, H. G. M. Fortes

General Relativity (GR) is not the only way gravity can be geometrised. Instead of curvature, the Teleparallel Theory attributes gravity to torsion , which is related to the ant…

Compact stars in gravity

José C. N. de Araujo, Hemily G. M. Fortes

The Teleparallel Theory is equivalent to General Relativity, but whereas in the latter gravity has to do with curvature, in the former gravity is described by torsion. As is well k…

Mass of compact stars in f(T) gravity

José Carlos Neves de Araujo, Hemily Gomes Marciano Fortes

The mass of compact objects in General Relativity (GR), which as is well known, is obtained via the Tolman - Oppenheimer - Volkov (TOV) equations, is a well defined quantity. Howev…

Solving Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations in gravity: a novel approach applied to polytropic equations of state

J. C. N. de Araujo, H. G. M. Fortes

The Teleparallel Theory is an alternative theory of gravity equivalent to General Relativity (GR) and with non-vanishing torsion . Some extensions of this theory, the so-called…

Solving Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations in gravity: a novel approach

H. G. M. Fortes, J. C. N. de Araujo

The torsion models have stood out among the proposals for an alternative description of gravity. The simplest of them, the Teleparallel theory, is equivalent to General Relativity…

Absence of the Higuchi bound in a family of alternative linear massive spin-2 models

Hemily Gomes Marciano Fortes, Márcio Eduardo da Silva Alves

There is a well known result from the Fierz-Pauli (FP) theory in de Sitter background that is the existence of a lower bound for the mass of the spin 2 particle, the Higuchi bo…

Note on massless and partially massless spin-2 particles in a curved background via a nonsymmetric tensor

H. G. M. Fortes, D. Dalmazi

In the last few years we have seen an increase interest on gravitational waves due to recent and striking experimental results confirming Einstein's general relativity once more. F…

Massive spin-2 particles in a curved background via a nonsymmetric tensor

Denis Dalmazi, Hemily Gomes Marciano Fortes

Massive spin-2 particles has been a subject of great interest in current research. If the graviton has a small mass, the gravitational force at large distances decreases more rapid…
