In view of new constraints put forth by recent observations and measurements in the realm of astrophysics and nuclear physics, we update the non-linear realization of the sigma model as to reflect such constraints. By doing this, we obtain…
In this work we present a stellar structure model from $f(\mathcal{R})$-gravity point of view capable to describe some classes of stars (White Dwarfs, Brown Dwarfs, Neutron stars, Red Giants and the Sun). This model was based on…
We calculate static and spherically symmetric solutions for the Rastall modification of gravity to describe Neutron Stars (NS). The key feature of the Rastall gravity is the non-conservation of the energy-momentum tensor proportionally to…
We investigate a conservative formulation of $f(R,T)$ gravity motivated by a key limitation of several existing approaches: the gravitational function is often reconstructed from a chosen equation of state, making the gravity sector…
In this work we investigate neutron stars (NS) in $f(\mathtt{R,L_m})$ theory of gravity for the case $f(\mathtt{R,L_m}) = \mathtt{R} + \mathtt{L_m} + \sigma\mathtt{R}\mathtt{L_m}$, where $\mathtt{R}$ is the Ricci scalar and $\mathtt{L_m}$…
Gravitational wave observations can potentially measure properties of neutron star equations of state by measuring departures from the point-particle limit of the gravitational waveform produced in the late inspiral of a neutron star…
We address the issue of the existence of inequivalent definitions of gravitational mass in $R^{2}$-gravity. We present several definitions of gravitational mass, and discuss the formal relations between them. We then consider the concrete…

Critical phenomena in gravitational collapse opened a new mathematical vista into the theory of general relativity and may ultimately entail fundamental physical implication in observations. However, at present, the dynamics of critical…
