The current model explores spherically symmetric anisotropic compact stars within the Rastall theory of gravity. By employing the Krori and Barua metric ansatz (K.D. Krori and J. Barua, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 8 (1975) 508), we derive a set…

The impact of the core mass on the compact/neutron-star mass-radius relation is studied. Besides the mass, the core is parameterized by its radius and surface pressure, which supports the outside one-component Standard Model (SM) matter.…
