Based on astrophysical constraints derived from Chandrasekhar's mass limit for white-dwarfs, we study the effects of the model on the parameters of unparticle-inspired gravity, on scales $\Lambda_U > 1 \; TeV$ and $d_U \approx 1$.
White dwarfs (WDs), as the remnants of low to intermediate-mass stars, provide a unique opportunity to explore the interplay between quantum mechanical degeneracy pressure and gravitational forces under extreme conditions. In this study, we…
In the context of $f\left(R, T\right) = R + 2 \beta T$ gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor, the equilibrium structure of charged anisotropic white dwarfs (WDs) is studied. The stellar…
Scalar-tensor theories of gravity can lead to modifications of the gravitational force inside astrophysical objects. We exhibit that compact stars such as white dwarfs provide a unique set-up to test beyond Horndeski theories of ${\rm G}^3$…
We study ultralight scalar fields with quadratic couplings to Standard-Model fermions and derive strong constraints from white-dwarf mass-radius data. Such couplings source scalar profiles inside compact stars, shift fermion masses, and can…
A few questions related to white dwarfs' physics is posed. It seems that the modified gravity framework can be a good starting point to provide alternative explanations to cooling processes, their age determination, and Chandrasekhar mass…
In this work, we study neutron stars (NSs) in an ungravity (UG) inspired model. We examine the UG effects on the static properties of the selected NSs, in different mass and radius regimes, i.e., mini, moderate, and heavy NSs, using a…
We examine the Chandrasekhar limit for white dwarfs in $f(R)$ gravity, with a simple polytropic equation of state describing stellar matter. We use the most popular $f(R)$ gravity model, namely the $f(R)=R+\alpha R^2$ gravity, and calculate…
We modify the Chandrasekhar model of white dwarfs by introducing novel momentum-space features that characterize the analysis of some quantum-spacetime scenarios. We find that the rather standard ultraviolet effects of spacetime…
We investigate the radial density distribution of the dynamical dark energy inside the white dwarfs (WDs) and its possible impact on their intrinsic structure. The minimally-coupled dark energy with barotropic equation of state which has…
Noncommutative geometry is one of the quantum gravity theories, which various researchers have been using to describe different physical and astrophysical systems. However, so far, no direct observations can justify its existence, and this…
Over the last few decades, there has been considerable interest in the violation of the sacred "Chandrasekhar" mass limit of white dwarfs (WDs). Peculiar over-luminous type Ia supernovae (such as SNLS-03D3bb) lend observational support to…
We investigate the Chandrasekhar mass limit for white dwarfs in various models of $f(R)$ gravity. Two equations of state for stellar matter are used: simple relativistic polytropic equation with polytropic index $n=3$ and the realistic…
The Chandrasekhar limit for white dwarfs has been confirmed by many astrophysical observations. However, how to obtain it theoretically in models which rely on other-than-Heisenberg's uncertainty principles, which are predicted by some…
Due to the highly degeneracy of electrons in white dwarf stars, we expect that the relativistic effects play very important role in these stars. In the present article, we study the properties of the condensed matter in white dwarfs using…
In this work, we investigate the equilibrium structure of white dwarfs within the covariant formulation of symmetric teleparallel $f(Q)$ gravity, in which gravity is described by the nonmetricity scalar $Q$ instead of spacetime curvature.…
Is the Chandrasekhar mass limit for white dwarfs (WDs) set in stone? Not anymore -- recent observations of over-luminous, peculiar type Ia supernovae can be explained if significantly super-Chandrasekhar WDs exist as their progenitors, thus…
We investigate the hydrostatic equilibrium of white dwarfs within the framework of Rastall-Rainbow gravity, aiming to explore the effects of this modified gravitational theory on their properties. By employing the Chandrasekhar equation of…
The existence of massive white dwarfs (WDs) containing more than Chandrasekhar's maximum mass has been suggested via the detection of peculiar type Ia Supernovae. It had been crucial to directly detect those 'super' (more…
Super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs are a timely topic in the last years in the scientific community due to its connection to supernovae type Ia (SN Ia). Some early studies tackled the possibility of white dwarfs surpassing the Chandrasekhar…
