The Palatini star: exact solutions of the modified Lane-Emden equation

Abstract

Two exact solutions for n=0 and n=1 of the Palatini-modified Lane-Emden equation are found. We have employed these solutions to describe a Palatini-Newtonian neutron star and compared the result with the pure Newtonian counterpart. It turned out that for the negative parameter of the Starobinsky model the star is heavier and larger.
