Analytical models for quark stars
K. Komathiraj, S. D. Maharaj
We find two new classes of exact solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell system of equations. The matter content satisfies a linear equation of state consistent with quark matter; a part…
Generalised compact spheres in electric fields
S. D. Maharaj, K. Komathiraj
We present exact solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell system of equations in spherically symmetric gravitational fields with a specified form of the electric field intensity. The cond…
The role of pressure anisotropy on the maximum mass of cold compact stars
S. Karmakar, S. Mukherjee, R. Sharma +1
We study the physical features of a class of exact solutions for cold compact anisotropic stars. The effect of pressure anisotropy on the maximum mass and surface redshift is analy…
A class of relativistic stars with a linear equation of state
R. Sharma, S. D. Maharaj
By assuming a particular mass function we find new exact solutions to the Einstein field equations with an anisotropic matter distribution. The solutions are shown to be relevant f…
