Abstract: (WSP)
A few questions related to white dwarfs’ physics is posed. It seems that the modified gravity framework can be a good starting point to provide alternative explanations to cooling processes, their age determination, and Chandrasekhar mass limits. Moreover, we have also obtained the Chandrasekhar limit coming from Palatini f(ℛ) gravity provided by a simple Lane–Emden model.
