The Teleparallel Theory is an alternative theory of gravity equivalent to General Relativity (GR) and with non-vanishing torsion $T$. Some extensions of this theory, the so-called $f(T)$ models, have been subject of many recent works. The…
This study explores the behavior of compact stars within the framework of $f(R,L_m,T)$ gravity, focusing on the functional form $f(R,L_m,T) = R + \alpha TL_m$. The modified Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equations are derived and…

We test a free {\it ad hoc} parametrization of the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff (TOV) equation. We do not have in mind any specific extended theory of gravity (ETG) but each new parameter introduced has a physical interpretation. Our aim is…

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.…
