Polytropic stars in Palatini gravity
Abstract We have derived a modified Lane–Emden equation for the Starobinsky model in Palatini gravity which is numerically solvable. Comparing the results to the ones provided by General Relativity we observe a significant difference depending on the theory parameter for the $$M-R$$ M-R relations.
