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 study phase-transition-like behavior in neutron stars using a simplified, piecewise equation of state that couples a modified van der Waals-type core to a polytropic crust. The model remains analytically tractable while allowing for…
