Anisotropic Dark Matter Stars

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2021-04-21 v2 High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena

Abstract

The properties of exotic stars are investigated. In particular, we study objects made entirely of dark matter and we take into account intrinsic anisotropies which have been ignored so far. We obtain exact analytical solutions to the structure equations and we we show that those solutions i) are well behaved within General Relativity, and ii) are capable of describing realistic astrophysical configurations.
