On relativistic models of strange stars

Abstract

The superdense stars with mass to size ratio greater than 0.3 are expected to be made up of strange matter. The ansatz prescrbing ge- ometry of a 3-paraboloid immersed in 4-dimensional Euclidean space for the 3-space of the interior spacetime of superdense star is shown to provide two parameter family of physically viable relativistic models of strange stars. The compact stellar con gurations with mass to size ratio greater than 0.3 are likely to admit only strange star interpretation.
