Stellar features of strange dark energy stars

Dark energy stars are theoretical objects that could potentially provide an explanation for the observable properties of black holes, including their event horizons and emission of the Hawking radiation. Because of this, they are considered to be an important area of research in modern theoretical physics and could help to answer fundamental questions about the Universe and the nature of dark energy. So, identifying and characterizing dark energy stars are a theoretically active and significant field in literature. In this context, for a theoretical model describing a new static symmetric singularity-free anisotropic dark energy star in view of the Rastall theory of gravity, which is an alternative to the general theory of relativity and is consistent with a wide range of astronomical observations, we focus our awareness in the present study on the modified field equations as well as the hydrostatic equilibrium expression and then discuss the corresponding solutions. It is shown that this new-type dark energy star meets all the necessary astronomical requirements, including stability and feasibility can potentially represent a compact cosmic structure. •A model describing dark energy stars is proposed.•Constructed model is physically stable and feasible.•The theoretical object satisfies all astrophysical requirements.•Implemented proposal can potentially represent a compact cosmic object.•Rastall theory provides a useful theoretical ground for stellar objects.
