Abstract
In this paper, a well-behaved new model of anisotropic compact star in (3+1)-dimensional spacetime has been investigated in the background of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. The model has been developed by choosing [Formula: see text] component as Krori–Barua (KB) ansatz [Krori and Barua in J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 8 (1975) 508]. The field equations have been solved by a proper choice of the anisotropy factor which is physically reasonable and well behaved inside the stellar interior. Interior spacetime has been matched smoothly to the exterior Schwarzschild vacuum solution and it has also been depicted graphically. Model is free from all types of singularities and is in static equilibrium under different forces acting on the system. The stability of the model has been tested with the help of various conditions available in literature. The solution is compatible with observed masses and radii of a few compact stars like Vela X-1, 4U [Formula: see text], PSR J[Formula: see text], LMC X [Formula: see text], EXO [Formula: see text].
