By introducing a nonminimal coupling between the Kalb--Ramond field and the electromagnetic field, we construct an exact four-dimensional static, spherically symmetric dyonic black hole solution in Lorentz-violating gravity with a…
We derive the modifications introduced by extra-spatial dimensions beyond the four dimensional spacetime on the macroscopic properties of neutron stars, which in turn affect the gravitational wave spectrum of their binaries. It turns out…
We re-examine the fine tuning problem of the Higgs mass, when an antisymmetric two form Kalb-Ramond (KR) field is present in the bulk of a Randall-Sundrum (RS) braneworld. Taking into account the back-reaction of the KR field, we obtain the…
Recently found accelarated expansion of our Universe is due to the presence of a new kind of matter called "$\Lambda$ - field" or quintessence. The limitations on its equation of state are found from the fact of its unclustering at all…
We show that when the antisymmetric Kalb-Ramond field is included in the Randall-Sundrum scenario, although the hierarchy problem can be solved, it requires an extreme fine tuning of the Kalb-Ramond field (about 1 part in $10^{62}$). We…
We have studied strange quark stars in the framework of the MIT bag model, allowing the bag parameter B to depend on the density of the medium. We have also studied the effect of Cooper pairing among quarks, on the stellar structure.…
A spacetime with torsion produced by a Kalb-Ramond field coupled gravitationally to the Maxwell field, in accordance with a recent proposal by two of us (PM and SS), is argued to lead to an optical activity in synchrotron radiation from…
We reexamine the static and spherical symmetric compact star configuration in the $R^2$ model of the $F(R)$ gravity theory. With asymptotic solutions for the additional scalar degrees of freedom, we refine analysis on the external geometry…
In theories with large extra dimensions, constraints from cosmology lead to non-trivial lower bounds on the fundamental scale M_F, corresponding to upper bounds on the radii of the compact extra dimensions. These constraints are especially…
We derive the maximum fraction of energy emitted in the form of massive (Kaluza- Klein) gravitons by core collapse supernovae, and the corresponding minimal extra-dimensional Planck mass M* in the ADD gravity framework at TeV scales. Our…
We consider the mass-radius bounds for spherically symmetric static compact objects in the de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) Massive Gravity theories, free of ghosts. In this type of gravitational theories the graviton, the quantum of…
Hubble expansion in warped braneworld model is addressed in presence of more than one warped extra dimensions. It is shown that while the expansion depends on all the moduli, an exponential nature of the expansion of the scale factor…
Hybrid stars with extremely high central energy density in their core are natural laboratories to investigate the appearance and the properties of compactified extra dimensions with small compactification radius -- if these extra dimensions…
We show that an inhomogeneous compact extra space possesses two necessary features --- their existence does not contradict the observable value of the cosmological constant $\Lambda_4$ in pure $f(R)$ theory, and the extra dimensions are…
We study the matter-coupled equations of motion for cosmological NS massless fields including all $\alpha'$ corrections in an O$(d,d)$ duality invariant approach, with emphasis on the Kalb-Ramond two-form field $B_{(2)}$ and its source.…
A realistic equation of state (EOS) leads to realistic strange stars (ReSS) which are compact in the mass radius plot, close to the Schwarzchild limiting line (Dey et al 1998). Many of the observed stars fit in with this kind of…
We discuss new limits on masses and radii of compact stars and we conclude that they can be interpreted as an indication of the existence of two classes of stars: "normal" compact stars and "ultra-compact" stars. We estimate the critical…
Many efforts have been devoted to the studies of the phenomenology in particle physics with extra dimensions. We propose degenerate fermion stars with extra dimensions and study what features characterized by the size of extra dimensions…
An inhomogeneous compactification of a higher dimensional spacetime can result in the formation of type I dimension bubbles, i.e., nontopological solitons which tend to absorb and entrap massive particle modes. We consider possible…
