The Buchdahl star is the limiting compactness (which is indicated by sturation of the Buchdahl bound) object without horizon. It is in general defined by the potential felt by radially falling timelike particle, $\Phi(R) = 4/9$, in the…

The Schwarzschild interior solution, when combined with the assumption of a finite central pressure, leads to the well-known Buchdahl bound. This bound establishes an upper limit on the mass-to-radius ratio of an object, which is equivalent…

It is noteworthy that limiting compactness of a static bounded configuration is characterized by a general principle: \textit{one, by equipartition of mass between inside and outside, and the other by vanishing of energy inside.} The former…

The so-called Buchdahl limit is not yet fully understood in the context of theories of gravity beyond the Einsteinian framework. In this investigation, we generalize this limit for the case of static, spherically-symmetric, relativistic…

In General Relativity, there exist two objects of limiting compactness, one with a null boundary defining the horizon of a black hole and the other with a timelike boundary defining a Buchdahl star. The two are characterized by…

The main aim of this paper is essentially to point out that the Buchdahl compactness limit of a static object is given by \it{gravitational field energy being less than or equal to half of its non-gravitational matter energy}. It is thus…

Buchdahl, by imposing a few physical assumptions on the matter, i.e., its density is a nonincreasing function of the radius and the fluid is a perfect fluid, and on the configuration, such as the exterior is the Schwarzschild solution,…

Very compact stars seem to be forbidden in General Relativity. While Buchdahl's theorem sets an upper bound on compactness, further no-go results rely on the existence of two light rings, the inner of which has been associated to…

The Buchdahl limit for static spherically symmetric isotropic stars is generalised to the case of five dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. Our result depends on the sign of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant $\alpha$. When $\alpha>0$, we…

One of the theoretical motivations behind the belief that black holes as described by general relativity exist in nature is that it is hard to find matter configurations that mimic their properties, especially their compactness. One of the…

We study generalizations of Buchdahl's compactness limits for perfect-fluid star solutions of $D$-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to higher-curvature corrections. We focus on Quasi-topological theories involving infinite towers of…

We generalise the Buchdahl-Bondi limit for the case of static, spherically symmetric, relativistic compact stars immersed in Schwarzschild vacuum in f(R)-theory of gravity, subject to very generic regularity, thermodynamic stability and…

Buchdahl sphere, the limiting stable isotropic stellar structure without exotic matter, plays a very important role in our understanding of how compact an astrophysical object can be. Here, we show certain universal properties associated…

We obtain the Buchdahl compactness limit for a pure Lovelock static fluid star and verify that the limit following from the uniform density Schwarzschild's interior solution, which is universal irrespective of the gravitational theory…

We derive a modified Buchdahl inequality for scalar-tensor theories of gravity. In general relativity, Buchdahl has shown that the maximum value of the mass-to-size ratio, $2M/R$, is 8/9 for static and spherically symmetric stars under some…

This paper is devoted in the study of the hydrostatic equilibrium of stellar structure in the framework of modified $f(R, T)$ gravity theory that allows the non-conservation of energy-momentum, with possible implications for several…

How can a Schwarzschild-sized matter system avoid a fate of gravitational collapse? To address this question, we critically reexamine the arguments that led to the "Buchdahl bound", which implies that the minimal size of a stable, compact…

A Buchdahl star is a highly compact star for which the boundary radius $R$ obeys $R=\frac98 r_+$, where $r_+$ is the gravitational radius of the star itself. A quasiblack hole is a maximum compact star, or more generically a maximum compact…
