Anisotropic charged stellar models with modified Van der Waals EoS in f(Q) gravity

This paper is based on the study of compact stars in the context of electric fields and the nonmetricity effects of gravity. Due to this, we are motivated to build stellar models based on spherically symmetric space-time in f(Q) gravity.

Introduction
The general theory of relativity (GR) by Albert Einstein, without any doubt, has been a wonderful work in human history as this world may hardly see any such theory as this. GR has amazingly solved complex and intricate geometrical problems with its unparalleled approach to space and time. However, there have been some long-pending unanswered issues that unfortunately have not been addressed by the GR. This emerging situation definitely requires something extra to handle the problem of the accelerating expanding universe, the issue of the mysterious substance known as dark matter and so dark energy, the flatness issue, the modern problems in quantum gravity, and much more. This situation has given birth to the modified and extended theories of gravity which are supposed to be an effective alternative to address these above-mentioned problems. Some evaluations and essential discussions associated with alternative theories of gravity have been described in [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. One way to generalize GR is to improve the Ricci scalar R to its functional form, i.e., f (R) gravity [1,9]. Choosing the T (torsion) or Q (nonmetricity) results in similar but different explanations of gravity, famed as (TEGR) teleparallel equivalent of general relativity [10,11] and (STGR) symmetric teleparallel general relativity [12][13][14][15]. In STGR definition of gravity is based on nonmetricity instead of curvature and torsion. Under the teleparallelism limits, in this theory, we might always make the choice of a coincident gauge, which by imposing some limitations on the affine connection to make it ineffective and lead ultimate it to vanish and strengthens only the metric tensor as a basic variable. Very similar to f (R), STGR can be further generalized to f (Q) gravity [15,16]. Numerous applications of f (Q) gravity [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] in literature are avail to review.
In recent eras, the study of stellar structures (dark-stars, black-holes, quark-stars, neutron-stars and gravastars) has been an attractive subject of research. Generally, stellar structures are declared as the white-dwarfs, neutron-stars, and the black-holes due to their physical attributes of the mass of collapsing objects. These are heavily dense materials and the radius is limited to be very small. The actual formation of these objects is unexplored but evidence in cosmology ensures their entity. The essence of degenerate stars is guessed from their varying properties than black holes. In this connection, Capozziello and Nashed [25] have derived new exact solutions for charged black holes in d-dimensional space using quadratic teleparallel equivalent gravity coupled with non-linear electrodynamics. They have specified the electromagnetic function and the functions that characterize the vielbeins in the presence of the electromagnetic field. The resulting solutions exhibit asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (AdS) behavior and include higher-order terms from the non-linear electrodynamics field, in addition to the monopole and quadrupole terms. While the black holes still possess a central singularity, it is less severe than those in general relativity. The researchers have also investigated the thermodynamic properties of the solutions. On the other hand, Awad et al. [26] introduced new solutions for D-dimensional charged Anti-de-Sitter black holes in the f (T ) gravity framework. The unique feature of these solutions is the presence of inseparable electric monopole and quadrupole terms in the potential that share related momenta, which distinguishes them from most known charged black hole solutions in General Relativity and its extensions. Furthermore, these solutions exhibit milder curvature singularities than those seen in known charged black hole solutions in General Relativity and Teleparallel Gravity. Moreover, Nashed and Capozziello [27] developed a novel set of analytical solutions for charged spherically symmetric black holes within certain classes of f (R) gravity. These solutions exhibit asymptotic behavior similar to that of flat or (A)dS spacetimes and are distinguished by a dimensional parameter that causes deviations from the standard solutions of general relativity. In contrast to these researches on black holes (discussed in [25][26][27]), we are interested in constructing a celestial system for compact stars under the influence of f (Q) gravity.
In this regard, the spherically-symmetric space-time is quite an effective metric in modeling stellar structures. Plenty of investigations incorporating this geometry of sphericallysymmetric structure have been carried out in the literature [28][29][30] to determine the results of the field equations. Ruderman [31] suggested that the density of stars in the nuclear framework turns anisotropic at the center of the stellar object. It is believed that all the forces of repulsion accountable for the creation of stellar objects are formed due to the physical aspect of anisotropy and also due to some other agents. Mak and Harko [32] have explored stellar models for spherically symmetric space-time and they calculated the exact solutions by implementing some assumptions for the physical parameters, such as, by assuming that the tangential and radial pressures and energy density remain finitely positive universally. The physical aspects of the anisotropic stellar sphere in connection with the mysterious cosmological constant have been proposed by Hossein et al. [33]. Some fascinating facts regarding stellar structure with rotating neutron stars have been explored by using two different EoS parameters [34]. For a good understanding of stellar objects, one can study some interesting works [35][36][37][38]. Some more recent works in different contexts with an in-depth discussion on this point can be found in the following Refs. [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57].
Das et al. [58] have studied some important physical structures of the stellar model by adopting conformal symmetry to explore the nature of diverse stellar spheres in f (R, T ) gravity. Sharif and Yousuf [59] have worked out the stability conditions of collapsing objects in the background of nonstatic space-time. Ditta et al. [60,61] have discussed stellar objects in extended theories with quintessence field.
In this manuscript, we attempted to build electrically charged stellar models by using modified Van der Waals EoS and the generating function z(x) in the formalism of f (Q) using a spherically symmetric metric. We here choose the specific form charge q(r ) = kr 3 [62], this form of charge selection allows us to variate the amount of charge, thus easily we can build the neutral star by selecting k = 0, as we did for SMC X-1, the compact star candidate. We selected the Her X-1, 4U 1538-52, SAX J1808.4-3658 as charged star candidates. Our system uses the metric ansatz proposed by Durgapal and Bannerji and considers the gravitational effects on charged objects. To evaluate the metric function and charge distribution, we employed the modified Van der Waals equation of state. Our results show that the charged celestial system we constructed is physically valid.
To organize the stellar model's discussion in this version of the manuscript, we write the basics of f (Q) gravity and charged field equations and calculations of metric ansatz in Sect. 2. Matching conditions for evaluations of constants are discussed in Sect. 3. In Sect. 4, we discussed the important results for charged and uncharged objects. Finally, Sect. 5 concludes the present investigation. Throughout the paper, the mostly positive signature −, +, +, + has been employed.

Basics of f ( Q) gravity and its field equations
In this study, we consider the action for f (Q) gravity [63], which is given by where determinant of g μν is denoted by g, f (Q) is the function of non-metricity Q, λ βμν α are the multiplier for the Lagrangian, L m and L e denote the matter Lagrangian density and electric field. The expression for non-metricity in the scope of affine-connection is defined as: The standard form for the affine-connection can be classified into the three components, which are provided as In the above equation, the expression υ mentions the Levi-Civita connection, which can be defined by the metric g υ as, where K υ represents the contortion, which is defined by the following relation: In the above equation, torsion tensor T υ realized as the antisymmetric part of the affine connection, T υ ≡ 2 [ υ] , and the disformation L υ is expressed as Now, the non-metricity conjugate is calculated as with two different independent traces Finally, the non-metricity scalar is calculated as follows: The standard form of the energy-momentum tensor and electromagnetic field tensor is given as Varying the action by Eq. (1) with respect to the metric g υ , we get the following field equations where f Q ≡ ∂ Q f (Q). Further, we have the following relation by varying the Eq. (1) with respect to the connection where the density for hyper-momentum tensor is calculated as Now, by considering the antisymmetry property of υ and in the Lagrangian multiplier coefficients, the Eq. (13) can be reduced to the following relation By using ∇ ∇ υ H α υ = 0, we have Further, without torsion and curvature, the affine connection [64] has the following form: By making a special coordinate choice, for the coincident gauge, the non-metricity reduces to the following expression With the concept of f (Q) gravity defined, the field equations ensure the conservation of the energy-momentum tensor. However, the work to do is still exist as the action no longer residues diffeomorphism invariant, except for STGR [65]. This problem can be avoided by taking the covariant formulation of f (Q) gravity. As the affine connection present in Eq. (17) is genuinely inertial, the covariant formulation can be utilized by first evaluating the affine connection without gravity [66]. As available in the current work, although, the off-diagonal component of the field equations in the coincident gauge would impose unbending limitations on f (Q) gravity, by giving us the nontrivial function of f (Q).
The ansatz for the common version of spherically symmetric static space-time is given as The substitution of Eq. (19) in the Eq. (9) results in the form of nonmetricity scalar Q as where prime is the derivative notation relative to the redial coordinate r . The energy-momentum tensor containing charge for anisotropic matter source is defined as where ρ, p r , and p t notion the energy density and pressure components (radial and tangential) respectively. The expression ς elaborates the four-velocity vector and ξ define the radial four-vector, both of them satisfy the following condition, Whereas the electromagnetic stress-energy tensor E υ is defined as where express the electromagnetic field tensor and read as Here A is the electromagnetic four potentials and j is the four current densities. For static configuration of fluid and reasoned upon the spherical symmetry, the only non-zero component of the four-current density is j 0 along the radial r direction. Thus the static and spherically symmetric electric field recommend that all electromagnetic field tensor components disappear other than radial component F 01 of the electric field. Equation (24) is satisfied if F 01 = −F 10 (i.e, antisymmetric). One can get the electric field (E) from Eq. (22) as where δ is the charge density and q(r ) is the total charge of the system. Total charge is directly proportional to the cube of the radial coordinate [62] as follows: where parameter k defines the intensity of charge, as k = 0 represents neutral star. The use of this model is easy and provides a variety of solutions. One can easily variate the electric charge intensity by fixing different values for k. Moreover, it provides simplicity when using integration in modified Van der Waals EoS. For anisotropic nature of fluid equation (21) and f (Q) field equation (12), we get the equations of motion as Here, we obtain the specific form of electric energy from Eqs. (25 and 26) written below where, From Eq. (30), we get the linear form of f (Q) gravity written as Where φ is the constant of integration. Interestingly, realistic fluid distribution is expected to obey the barotropic EoS viz., p r = p r (ρ). Here, we take into account that the interior matter distribution fulfills the modified Van der Waals EoS given below Here η, β and γ are the arbitrary parameters defining the acceleration and deceleration phases of the universe. Limiting η, γ → 0, we can recover the dark energy EoS, as β = p r /ρ < −1/3. It also has been predicted that in stationary circumstances the perfect fluid EoS p r = βρ expresses an estimation of Universe epochs, by ignoring the phase transitions [67]. Consequently, the use of modified Van der Waals EoS is beneficial, as without involving the scalar fields one can easily depict the transition from a matter field dominant era to a scalar field dominant epoch. Moreover, it clarifies nature by involving a few elements, and the modified Van der Waals fluid obviously takes dark energy and dark matter as a single matter. Imposing limitations of the free parameters [67], the modified Van der Waals framework was also productively challenged with a vast range of observational tests. Alternatively, this modified Van der Waals EoS (34) due to more free parameters involved is more flexible in comparison to observational tests. Here, we use a new transformation by introducing new functions y(x) and z(x) with independent variable x as it was used in [68], Equations (27, 28, 29 and 32) takes the new form as Applying the above system of Eqs. (36)(37) and taking into account modified Van der Waals EoS (34), we get the spacetime component y(x) as where To respect the purpose of solving the system of heavenly bodies system, we take the physically stable form of a metric function z(x) given as This form of metric function is physically acceptable as it remains positive by taking δ = 0. Thus the Eq. (40) is mod-ified as where the expressions for specific form of J 1 , J 2 , J 3 , and J 5 are written in Appendix-I. Now the final versions of Eqs. (36)(37)(38)(39) are below given where, the expression for p t1 is given in the Appendix-II.

Matching of interior metric with the exterior metric to evaluate unknowns
The continuous and regular matching of interior and exterior space-times is an un-avoided ingredient of the study of the heavenly structure. The outer space-time may be the Schwarzschild space-time for vacuum case, Reissner-Nordström geometry, Kerr-Newman geometry, and Bardeen geometry, and Reissner-Nordström-(anti)-de Sitter (RNdS) varies from case to case study. Here we use the metric form suggested by the Reissner-Nordström-(anti)-de Sitter (RNdS) for the study of charged compact objects in f (Q)gravity, which is given below where, denotes a cosmological constant with = φ/2α. It is clearly observed that when β 1 = 1 and φ = 0, the RNdS spacetime (57) reduces into Reissner-Nordström (RN) exterior solution. On the other hand, by taking the charge term Q = 0, this space-time is perfectly the Schwarzschild (anti)-de Sitter space-time for the vacuum scenario, which is the case of the neutral star. In the present article, we are interested in the study of charged compact star and the value of the cosmological constant in the present universe based on the current observational evidence is approx 10 −46 /km 2 . Therefore, the current value of has no effect on the present charge stellar structures and then it can be taken to zero. Based on this assumption, we get φ = 0 i.e. = 0 and the RNdS spacetime (57) reduces to Reissner-Nordström (RN) exterior solution. Furthermore, the inner space-time is given as Matching the Eqs. (47) and (48), we get the following system of equations By solving the above system of equations at boundary condition r = R and taking the Eq. (26), Q = kr 3 , we get the following values of constants It is important to note that the value of C is not written here due to the very long expression. Also, we apply boundary to calculate the given below value of parameter γ Numerical values of these constants are given in Table 1.

Discussion summary of the calculated results for charged and uncharged objects
This section comprehends a valuable discussion of the results calculated for charged objects as well as uncharged objects. For this particular motive, we choose the compact stars candidates Her X-1, 4U 1538-52, SAX J1808.4-3658, and SMC X-1. To discuss the complete gravitational effects of the f (Q) gravity, we here, in this manuscript consider the important form of charge q = kr 3 , by choosing different positive values of k, we discuss the charged nature of matter distribution as well as un-charged matter by taking k = 0 for SMC X-I. Constants listed in Table1 are evaluated by the conventional matching of inner and outer metric ansatz. It is worth writing, the metric component y(x) is obtained by incorporating the modified Van der Waals EoS of fluid distribution while z(x) is taken from literature with its specific form. Moreover, these metric functions were introduced in the way suggested by Durgapal and Bannerji [68]. The results calculated in our heavenly bodies system are equipped with the following characteristics: By seeking help from available literature, we now justify the amount of charge. It was suggested in [69] that stars with vanishing net charge consist of fluid elements with unbounded proper charge density located at the fluid-vacuum interface and net charges can be huge like (10 19 C). Moreover, the research in reference [70] has analyzed the effect of charge in compact stars by accounting for the limit of the maximum amount of charge they can hold and they have suggested by the numerical calculation that the global balance of the forces allows a more huge charge like (10 20 C) to be present in a neutron star. The numerical values of these constants are given in Table 1 along with the amounts of the total charge in our model.
The density of our stellar system of heavenly bodies system is positive and monotonic in nature with falling behavior  from the maximum in the center to a minimum at the outer layer, likewise, pressure profiles follow the isotropic form in the middle i.e., p t = p r | r =0 , and remain positive throughout the heavenly body, while radial direction pressure approaches to zero at the outer layer. Non-zero transverse pressure at the outer surface is reasoned because of the orbital motion of particles [71][72][73], and is closely linked to the surface tension. Behaviours showing graphs for ρ, p r , p t are plotted in Fig. 1. These are the forcefully required characteristics for the physical nature of realistic electrically charged matter and uncharged matter. Anisotropy = p t − p r is a positive repulsive force that is counterbalanced by the attractive force of negatively propagating gradients. As isotropic conditions are dominant inside the center like p t = p r | r =0 and | r =0 = 0. And inside the celestial charged body anisotropy monotonically increase positively radially outward to the layer of the compact body by approaching peak value. Figure 2 shows the plots of the anisotropic factor profile. Figure 3 indicates that our system is electrically charged by showing that E 2 > 0 all over the matter spread and in the center E 2 | r =o = 0. Also, σ > 0 shows the existence of positive charge density for different values of k (5.1 × 10 −5 , 4.1 × 10 −5 , 6.1 × 10 −5 ). Herein E 2 = σ = 0 suggests the SMC X-1 as a neutral candidate, where k = 0 means no charge. Furthermore, having a review of available literature, we will here make an attempt to justify the amount of charge. Literature [69] suggests that stars having dissipating net charge are composed of fluid elements with limit-free proper net charge density located at the fluid-vacuum interface and its total net charge can be huge amounting to (10 19 C). further, the effects of charge in compact objects are discussed in literature [70] by taking into account the maximum limit of they can hold suggesting by the numerical calcula- tion that the global balance of the forces may allow the more huge amount of charge like (10 20 C) to be present in a neutron star. The amounts of charge in our case study are written in Table 1.

Energy conditions
Energy constraints are taken as a tool to judge the essence of charged matter whether it is realistic or un-realistic matter. Positive energy limits direct the real and physical nature of the anisotropic matter. SEC, WEC, NEC, and DEC, the Strong, weak, null, and dominant energy conditions (54)(55)(56)(57) for charged objects in expression form is as Fig. 3 Profiles of charge density and electric Energy versus radial coordinate, r . The same set of numerical values has been used to plot these graphs as mentioned in Fig. 2   Fig. 4 Profiles of energy conditions {ρ + p r , ρ + p t ρ − p r − 2 p t , ρ − p r , ρ − p t }, adiabatic index ( ) and TOV forces versus radial coordinate, r . The same set of numerical values has been used to plot these graphs as mentioned in Fig. 2 S EC : ρ + p r + 2 p t + E 2 ≥ 0, In our study, the positive conduct of energy conditions makes sure that our system of stellar objects is electrically charged and is made of realistic charged matter. The left panel in Fig. 4, shows the pictorial behavior of energy conditions.

Stability via adiabatic index
Chandrasekhar in his work [74,75] first time discussed the stability of the celestial bodies under adiabatic index r . A lot of authors [76][77][78], further included this stability limit in their discussions. In their work, Heintzmann and Hillebrandt [79], further incorporated this stability scheme by introducing an acceptability limit, like | 0≤r ≤R > 4 3 . The mathematical form of the adiabatic index is given as The middle panel of Fig. 4 clearly announces the stability of our electrically celestial bodies system under adiabatic index criteria.

Equilibrium condition via Tolman-Volkoff-Oppenheimer equation in f (Q)-gravity
Equilibrium of the stellar body is ensured by the balancing effect of the Tolman-Volkoff-Oppenheimer equation [83,84] well-known as TOV equation whose expression form for the charged stellar object in GR is given by: where the above Eq. (59) can be written in the form of different force components,  The same set of numerical values has been used to plot these graphs as mentioned in Fig. 2 such that The right panel of Fig. 4 shows that our charged stellar system is in complete equilibrium and stable.

Mass-radius relationship and surface red-shift
Maximum limit for compactness parameter was defined as u(r ) = m(r ) R < 4 9 [85]. Moreover, the presence of an electric charge in the solution modifies Buchdahl's limit. In this connection, the lower and upper bound of the mass-radius ratio can be calculated by the formula [87,88], Fig. 7 Profiles of EoS components (w r = p r /ρ and w t versus radial coordinate, r . The same set of numerical values has been used to plot these graphs as mentioned in Fig. 2 where M can easily evaluate from the matching condition for the charged compact star of the radial R under the negligible value of cosmological constant, Then corresponding the effective mass for the distribution of charged matter can be obtained from the formula, Compactification u is a mass to radius ratio as given in the Eq. (64), which serves as a basis for evaluating the redshift function z s given in Eq. (65).
On the other hand, the highest value for redshift z s was suggested by Buchdhal [86], like z s ≤ 4.77. The regular and admissible profiles for mass function, redshift, and compactification are plotted in Fig. 5.

Speed of sound and stability via cracking
Sound waves traveling within the charged anisotropic fluid must have a speed that is less than the electromagnetic radiation (speed of light c = 1). The expressions of sound speeds in the mathematical form are as v 2 sr = dp r dρ and v 2 st = dp t dρ .
The above two panels of Fig. 6 show that the speed of sound is less than the speed of light throughout the star. Furthermore, Abreu et al. [80] defined the stability region, where v 2 sr > v 2 st , with no change of sign in v 2 st − v 2 sr . Andréasson in his work [81] suggested the generalization of this region 0 < |v 2 t − v 2 r | < 1 by introducing the concept of no cracking where the region is stable. No cracking mean stable region [82]. The bottom two panels of Fig. 6 suggest that our system of charged objects is stable under cracking criteria.
Furthermore, we have checked whether the charged matter is realistic or dark matter can be predicted from some limits applicable to the EoS components like 0 ≤ w r < 1, and 0 < w t < 1. For the realistic composition of charged and uncharged matter, these matter-relating limits must be respected. The mathematical forms for EoS are as It can easily be evaluated that our system of heavenly bodies predicts the realistic nature of matter composition under EoS radial and transverse components. Figure 7 show the graphs of these w r , and w t profiles.

Concluding remarks
Our celestial system for charged objects is constructed under the gravitational effects of f (Q) gravity by taking the functional arrangements of metric ansatz introduced by Durgapal and Bannerji. Moreover, we utilized the modified Van der Waals EoS to evaluate the metric function. To show the comprehensive and combined effect of charged and uncharged fields, we made a choice of a special form of charge q(r ) = kr 3 . Our constructed charged celestial system is physically acceptable as: The energy density and pressure profiles depict the realistic and physical nature of charge matter. Anisotropy and gradients as a combination provide system stability and balanced configuration. Our system is electrically charged and composed of suitable charged configurations. Energy conditions suggest the proper and real form of charged anisotropic matter composition. The system is well-stable under the adiabatic index and cracking criteria. EoS components depict the real nature of matter composition. Whereas the system is physically admissible according to the mass, redshift, and compactification parameters. Table 1 shows the predicted radii for different compact objects with the total charge on the boundary in the Coulomb (C) unit. However, the lower and upper bound of the mass-radius ratio is presented in Table 2 along with the surface redshift of the obtained compact objects. From this Table 2, it is clear that our model satisfies the lower and upper limits of the mass ratio as well as the surface redshift upper limit. It is clear from Table 1 and Table 2 that for star Her X-1 the amount of charge is 5.031 × 10 18 C and redshift is 0.825387, for star 4U 1538-52 the amount of charge is 4.133 × 10 18 C and redshift is 0.826626, for star SAX J1808.4-3658 the amount of charge is 6, 467 × 10 18 C and redshift is 0.829549, for star SMC X-1 the amount of charge is 0.00C and redshift is 0.788741. Finally, we would like to mention that our study is physically valid and may be beneficial for further studies in the context of f (Q)-gravity theory.
