A new deterministic model of strange stars

Understand

The observed evidence for the existence of strange stars and the concomitant observed masses and radii are used to derive an interpolation formula for the mass as a function of the radial coordinate.

• The resulting general mass function becomes an effective model for a strange star.
• The analysis is based on the MIT bag model and yields the energy density, as well as the radial and transverse pressures.
• Using the interpolation function for the mass, it is shown that a mass-radius relation due to Buchdahl is satisfied in our model.
