Impact of generalized polytropic equation of state on charged anisotropic polytropes

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, generalized polytropic equation of state is used to get new classes of polytropic models from the solution of Einstein-Maxwell field equations for charged anisotropic fluid configuration. The models are developed for different values of polytropic index $$n=1,~\frac{1}{2},~2$$ n=1,12,2 . Masses and radii of eight different stars have been regained with the help of developed models. The speed of sound technique and graphical analysis of model parameters is used for the viability of developed models. The analysis of models indicates they are well behaved and physically viable.
