Abstract
AbstractEinstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity in five dimensions is applied to compact stellar objects, in particular to quark stars obeying a colour-flavour-locked equation of state. Matter under such extreme conditions welcomes the use of higher-order gravity theories or the inclusion of extra dimensions in support of higher-curvature effects. In so doing, we focus on the representation of quantities in higher dimensions in standard four-dimensional spacetime via compactification. Invoking extra compact dimensions from a basic string-theoretic perspective provides for the rationalisation of physical quantities computed in higher dimensions.
