We explore the evolutionary behaviors of compact objects in a modified gravitational theory with the help of structure scalars. Particularly, we consider the spherical geometry coupled with heat and radiation emitting shearing viscous matter configurations. We construct structure scalars by splitting the Riemann tensor orthogonally in f (R, T ) gravity with and without constant R and T constraints, where R is the Ricci scalar and T is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor. We investigate the influence of modification of gravity on the physical meaning of scalar functions for radiating spherical matter configurations. It is explicitly demonstrated that even in modified gravity, the evolutionary phases of relativistic stellar systems can be analyzed through the set of modified scalar functions.

In this paper, we investigate the effects of electromagnetic field on the isotropic spherical gravastar models in metric f (R, T ) gravity. For this purpose, we have explored singularity-free exact models of relativistic spheres with a specific equation of state. After considering Reissner Nordström spacetime as an exterior region, the interior charged manifold is matched at the junction interface. Several viable realistic characteristics of the spherical gravastar model are studied in the presence of electromagnetic field through graphical representations. It is concluded that the electric charge has a substantial role in the modeling of proper length, energy contents, entropy and equation of state parameter of the stellar system. We have also explored the stable regions of the charged gravastar structures.

In this paper, we have considered flat Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker metric in the framework of perfect fluid models and modified f (G) gravity (where G is the Gauss Bonnet invariant). Particularly, we have considered particular realistic f (G) configurations that could be used to cure finite-time future singularities arising in the late-time cosmic accelerating epochs. We have then developed the viability bounds of these models induced by weak and null energy conditions, by using the recent estimated numerical figures of the deceleration, Hubble, snap and jerk parameters.
