Interior Solutions for Non-singular Gravity and the Dark Star alternative to Black Holes

TL;DR

This paper introduces a new class of stable, non-singular astrophysical objects called Dark Stars, which serve as an alternative to black holes, based on modified gravity equations that prevent singularities.

Contribution

The paper develops hydrostatic equilibrium equations for Non-singular Gravity and predicts the existence of stable Dark Stars beyond neutron star densities.

Findings

Dark Stars are stable against gravitational collapse.

Dark Stars exist beyond neutron star field strengths.

They provide a non-singular alternative to black holes.

Abstract

The general equations describing hydrostatic equilibrium are developed for Non-singular Gravity. A new type of astrophysical structure, a Super Dense Object (SDO) or "Dark Star", is shown to exist beyond Neutron star field strengths. These structures are intrinsically stable against gravitational collapse and represent the non-singular alternative to General Relativity's Black Holes.
