Analytic models of anisotropic strange stars in f ( T ) $f(T)$ gravity with off-diagonal tetrad

Abstract

This paper is devoted to study the analytic models of anisotropic compact stars in $f(T)$ gravity (where $T$ is torsion scalar), with non-diagonal tetrad. By taking the anisotropic source inside the spherically symmetric star, the equations of motions have been derived in the context of $f(T)$ gravity. Krori and Barua metric which satisfies the physical requirement of a realistic star, has been applied to describe the compact objects like strange stars. We use the power law form of $f(T)$ model to determine explicit relations of matter variables. Further, we have found the anisotropic behavior, energy conditions, stability and surface redshift of stars. Using the masses and radii of 4$U$1820-30, Her X-1, SAX J 1808-3658, we have determined the constants involved in metric components. Finally we discuss the graphical behavior of the analytic description of strange star candiddates.
