Charged anisotropic white dwarfs in f (R, T) gravity

The study investigates charged, anisotropic white dwarfs using f(R, T) gravity to explore physics beyond General Relativity. By modeling these compact objects with modified gravity and anisotropy, researchers found that specific combinations of electric charge, modified gravity effects, and anisotropy allow the star to exceed standard mass limits (super-Chandrasekhar phenomena).
