White dwarf stars in modified gravity [CL]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2012.13927


A few questions related to white dwarfs’ physics is posed. It seems that the modified gravity framework can be a good starting point to provide alternative explanations to cooling processes, their age determination, and Chandrasekhar mass limits. Moreover, we have also obtained the Chandrasekhar limit coming from Palatini $f(\mathcal{R})$ gravity provided by a simple Lane-Emden model.
