Stellar equilibrium configurations of white dwarfs in the f(R, T) gravity
Abstract In this work we investigate the equilibrium configurations of white dwarfs in a modified gravity theory, namely, f(R, T) gravity, for which R and T stand for the Ricci scalar and trace of the energy-momentum tensor, respectively. Considering the functional form $$f(R,T)=R+2\lambda T$$ f ( R...
