We present a generalization of Rastalls gravity in which the conservation law of the energy-momentum tensor is altered, and as a result, the trace of the energy-momentum tensor is taken into account together with the Ricci scalar in the expression for the covariant derivative. Afterwards, we obtain the field equations in this theory and solve them by considering a spherically symmetric space-time. We show that the external solution has two possible classes of solutions with spherical symmetry in the vacuum in generalized Rastalls gravity, and we analyse one of them explicitly. The generalization, in contrast to constant value $k=8pi G$ in general relativity, has a gravitational parameter $k$ that depends on the Rastall constant $alpha$. As an application, we perform a careful analysis of the effects of the theory on neutron stars using realistic equations of state (EoS) as input. Our results show that important differences on the profile of neutron stars are obtained within two representatives EoS.
We study the properties of compact objects in a particular 4D Horndeski theory originating from higher dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. Remarkably, an exact vacuum solution is known. This compact object differs from general relativity mostl
Exotic compact objects (ECOs) have recently become an exciting research subject, since they are speculated to have a special response to the incident gravitational waves (GWs) that leads to GW echoes. We show that energy carried by GWs can easily cau
We consider static and cylindrically symmetric interior string type solutions in the scalar-tensor representation of the hybrid metric-Palatini modified theory of gravity. As a first step in our study, we obtain the gravitational field equations and
Teukolsky equations for $|s|=2$ provide efficient ways to solve for curvature perturbations around Kerr black holes. Imposing regularity conditions on these perturbations on the future (past) horizon corresponds to imposing an in-going (out-going) wa
During the early phase of in-spiral of a binary system, the tidal heating of a compact object due to its companion plays a significant role in the determination of the orbital evolution of the binary. The phenomenon depends crucially on the `hairs, a
