Scalar-tensor theories (STTs) are a widely studied alternative to General Relativity (GR) in which gravity is endowed with an additional scalar degree of freedom. Although severely constrained by solar system and pulsar timing experiments,…
Scalar-tensor (ST) gravity theories provide an appropriate theoretical framework for the variation of Newton's fundamental constant, conveyed by the dynamics of a scalar-field non-minimally coupled to the space-time geometry. The…

This work aims to investigate the behaviour of compact stars in the background of $f(R, T)$ theory of gravity. For current work, we consider the Krori-Barua metric potential i.e., $\nu(r)= Br^2+C$ and $\lambda(r)= Ar^2,$ where, $A, B$ and…

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. However, in alternative gravity, this is not in general the case.…
