Quark matter is expected to exist in the interior of compact stellar objects as neutron stars or even the more exotic strange stars, based on the Bodmer-Witten conjecture. Bare strange quark stars and (normal) strange quark-matter stars,…

The possible emergence of compact stars has been investigated in the recently introduced modified Gauss-Bonnet $f(\mathcal{G},T)$ gravity, where $\mathcal{G}$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term and ${T}$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor.…
