Neutron Stars in Aether Scalar-Tensor Theory

Abstract

Aether Scalar-Tensor theory is a modification of general relativity proposed to explain galactic and cosmological mass discrepancies conventionally attributed to dark matter.~The theory is able to fit the cosmic microwave background and the linear matter power spectrum.~In this work, we derive the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation in this theory and solve it for realistic nuclear equations of state to predict the mass-radius relation of neutron stars.~We find solutions that are compatible with all current observations of neutron stars.
