Abstract

Hybrid star is the term given to a neutron star with a quark core. Due to a lot of uncertainties in the calculations and compositions of such a high-density system, it is of great interest and a preferred scenario for particle physicists and astrophysicists. To explore some novel aspects within the framework of the 5D Einstein-Gauss–Bonnet(EGB) gravity, our current study presents a hybrid star model that includes strange quark matter in addition to regular baryonic matter. In hybrid stellar objects, a hadronic outer component surrounds a quark inner component, which prompts the consideration of the most basic MIT bag model equation of state to correlate the density and pressure of strange quark matter within the stellar interior, while radial pressure and matter density due to baryonic matter are connected by a linear equation of state. The model is constructed within the specifications of the Krori and Barua (KB) ansatz (Krori and Barua, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 8,508,1975). Here we present the solution for a particular compact object 4U 1538 - 52 with mass M=0.87±0.07M⊙ and radius R=7.866−0.21+0.21 km. We examine the fundamental physical characteristics of the star, which highlights how the values of matter variables are affected by the Gauss–Bonnet coupling parameter α. Finally, as it meets all the physical requirements for a realistic model, we have come to realize that our present model is realistic.
