The basic lesson from cosmology:

GR and the Standard Particles Model are not enough !

  • One may add some new content: Dark matter, Dark energy
  • One may modify GR: simplest modifications are F(R) and MDG
  • Some combination of the above two possibilities may work ?

What about the Star Physics ??? Do we have the same problem :

EOS versus gravity modification??? Maybe we need both pisibilities simultaneously ???

Plan of the talk:

  • Minimal dilatonic gravity (MDG)
  • The basic equations of SSSS in MDG
  • The boundary conditions for SSSS in MDG
  • Neutron SSSS with simplest EOS in MDG

SSSS = Static Spherically Symmetric Stars

No ghosts! No tachions ! Withholding potentials: PPF, PRD (2013)

Comparison of the Starobinsky 1980 potential VSt and dilatonic potential V with identical masses of the scalaron and MDG-dilaton: MDG is consistent with Solar system experiments if: (PPF 2000)

Conclusion

Most probably we need to look simultaneously and coherently for a realistic EOS and for a realistic withholding cosmological potential which are able to describe a variety of cosmological, astrophysical, gravitational and star phenomena at different scales: compact stars, with dwarfs, normal stars, stars clusters, galaxies, galaxy clusters, … It is not excluded that they are related with different de Sitter vacuums, suitable for corresponding different scales and for different time epochs.

Thank you!

More efforts seem to be needed! A rather old cosmological problem:
