Abstract
In this work, we study self-gravitating objects that obey a polytropic equation of state in hyperbolic symmetry. Specifically, we describe in detail the steps to derive the Lane-Emden equation from the structure equations of the system. To integrate the equations numerically, we propose the Cosenza-Herrera-Esculpi-Witten anisotropy and study the cases and in the parameter space of the models. We find that the matter sector exhibits the usual and expected behavior for certain values in this parameter space: energy density (in absolute value) and radial pressure are decreasing functions and vanish at the surface, while the mass function is increasing towards the surface. We find that the anisotropy of the system is positive and decreasing, consistent with the behavior of the radial pressure, which reaches a local minimum at the surface (i.e., the pressure gradient is zero at the surface). We also study the compactness of the dense objects as a function of the polytropic index and obtain that it has an upper bound given by the maximum value it reaches for a certain . Some extensions of the work and future proposals are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Physics presents original work in all areas of basic theoretic physics research. Ideas are developed and fully explored, and thorough treatment is given to first principles and ultimate applications. Annals of Physics emphasizes clarity and intelligibility in the articles it publishes, thus making them as accessible as possible. Readers familiar with recent developments in the field are provided with sufficient detail and background to follow the arguments and understand their significance.
The Editors of the journal cover all fields of theoretical physics. Articles published in the journal are typically longer than 20 pages.
