Models of Charged Gravastars in f(T)-Gravity

This study investigates three distinct charged gravastar models within the framework of fT modified gravity, considering the functional forms fT=T, fT=a+bT, and fT=T2. Inspired by the Mazur–Mottola conjecture, we propose these models as singularity-free alternatives to black holes, each characterized by a three-region structure: (i) an interior de Sitter core, (ii) an intermediate thin shell composed of ultrarelativistic matter, and (iii) an exterior region described by the Reisner Nordstrom solution and other novel spherically symmetric vacuum solutions. We derive a complete set of exact, singularity-free solutions for the charged gravastar configuration, demonstrating their mathematical consistency and physical viability in the context of alternative gravity theories. Notably, the field equations governing the thin shell are solved using an innovative approach based on Killing vector symmetries, eliminating the need for approximations commonly employed in prior studies. Furthermore, we analyze key physical properties of the thin shell, including its proper length, entropy distribution, and energy content. A thorough examination of the energy conditions reveals the thermodynamic stability and viability of these models. Our results contribute to the growing body of work on exotic compact objects and provide new insights into the interplay between modified gravity, electromagnetism, and non-singular black hole alternatives.

Abstract

This study investigates three distinct charged gravastar models within the framework of fT modified gravity, considering the functional forms fT=T, fT=a+bT, and fT=T2. Inspired by the Mazur–Mottola conjecture, we propose these models as singularity-free alternatives to black holes, each characterized by a three-region structure: (i) an interior de Sitter core, (ii) an intermediate thin shell composed of ultrarelativistic matter, and (iii) an exterior region described by the Reisner Nordstrom solution and other novel spherically symmetric vacuum solutions. We derive a complete set of exact, singularity-free solutions for the charged gravastar configuration, demonstrating their mathematical consistency and physical viability in the context of alternative gravity theories. Notably, the field equations governing the thin shell are solved using an innovative approach based on Killing vector symmetries, eliminating the need for approximations commonly employed in prior studies. Furthermore, we analyze key physical properties of the thin shell, including its proper length, entropy distribution, and energy content. A thorough examination of the energy conditions reveals the thermodynamic stability and viability of these models. Our results contribute to the growing body of work on exotic compact objects and provide new insights into the interplay between modified gravity, electromagnetism, and non-singular black hole alternatives.
