A comprehensive analysis of charged pulsars and cracking condition

Abstract

The main aim of this manuscript is to analyze the viability and stability of pulsars filled with charged anisotropic matter configuration in extended symmetric teleparallel theory. A particular model of this gravitational theory is considered to reduce the complexity of the system and formulate the explicit field equations which govern the interaction between matter and geometry. The configuration of static spherical symmetric structures is examined through the non-singular viable solutions. The undetermined constants in the metric coefficients are determined by the Darmois junction conditions. Further, we explore different physical characteristics in the interior of charged pulsars to check their viability. The equilibrium state of the charged stellar objects is discussed using the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff equation and the stability is examined by the causality condition, Herrera cracking approach and adiabatic index, respectively. Our findings indicate that the proposed charged stars in this modified gravity are physically viable and stable.
