Structure scalars and their evolution for massive objects in f(R) gravity

2021 
In this manuscript, the Riemann tensor is split orthogonally to get five scalar functions known as structure scalars which have significance to gain insight into the composition and structure of spherically symmetric self-gravitating objects. Certain stellar equations are then evaluated to gather information about physical characteristics of such astrophysical objects. These stellar equations are further written in terms of acquired structure scalars so that the basic properties such as pressure anisotropy and energy density inhomogeneity of the fluid under consideration can be explored. Also, we have explored few static spherically symmetric solutions to show significance of structure scalars in the background of f(R) gravity.
