We simulate the thermal evolution of the SXTs with theoretical models of the equation of state and composition of the accreted crust. The new family of such models were recently developed within a thermodynamically consistent approach by modeling the nuclear evolution of an accreted matter as it sinks toward the stellar center, starting from representative thermonuclear ash compositions. The crust cooling curves computed with the traditional and modern theory are compared with observations of SXTs MXB 1659−29 and IGR J17480−2446. We show that the new and traditional models of the accreted neutron star crusts are similar in their capability to explain the thermal evolution of neutron stars in SXTs.

We use a null zero complexity factor to find the wormhole shape function for Model I. Additionally, we solve analytically the modified field equations describing wormhole for a given choice of logarithmic redshift function, exploiting the Karmarkar condition for embedding class one metrics for Model II. To achieve this, we analyze the wormhole geometry in a static spherical spacetime with an anisotropic matter configuration. The study investigates a number of parameters, including density, energy conditions, equation of state parameter, adiabatic sound velocity, and equilibrium condition. The solution shows a traversable wormhole that violates the null energy criterion and equilibrium state for certain ranges of free parameters. We employ adiabatic sound velocity analysis to concentrate on the stability of the wormhole. Furthermore, by using the equation of state parameter (<em>ω</em>), we conclude that both models end up in the phantom dark energy region. Finally, our findings highlight distinct photon deflection behaviors in dRTG massive gravity, with Model II showing negative angles indicative of repulsive gravity, while Model I exhibits positive angles, underscoring significant differences in gravitational dynamics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54265,"journal":{"name":"Journal of High Energy Astrophysics","volume":"45 ","pages":"Pages 32-45"},"PeriodicalIF":10.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142701242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study reveals novel thermal behaviors and energy emission patterns compared to standard AdS black holes, particularly highlighting the influence of the Kalb-Ramond field on black hole stability and phase transitions. Furthermore, we examine the role of the Kalb-Ramond field in modifying the emission energy. Our findings provide deeper insights into black hole thermodynamics, the emission process, and the broader role of antisymmetric fields in gravitational physics. Different paths for test particles near black holes are determined by their distance from the innermost stable circular orbit, which plays a crucial role in this study. The unique behavior of particles impacted by mass and rotational momentum is highlighted by the fact that particles within the innermost stable circular orbits tend to converge toward the singularity, but particles outside tend to diverge toward infinity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54265,"journal":{"name":"Journal of High Energy Astrophysics","volume":"45 ","pages":"Pages 62-74"},"PeriodicalIF":10.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142701243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
