Modeling compact stars with two fluids

20241 citationOpen accessUniversity of South Africa

Abstract

In this paper, we study the curved Krori–Barua spacetime geometry to describe compact stars with two components: dark and ordinary matter, using a two-fluid model approach. We choose the equation of state derived from the rotational curves of galaxies for dark matter and the polytropic equation of state for ordinary matter. The physical requirements for a realistic compact star are satisfied using specific parameters. For the polytropic index η=2, we find the values of observed masses, reported in our previous investigation (Mafa et al., 2020).
