Summary: | Abstract We find a new family of exact solutions to the Einstein system of equations with an anisotropic fluid distribution for a spherically symmetric spacetime containing a conformal Killing vector. Simple analytic expressions describe the matter variables and the metric functions which are regular at the centre and the interior of the body. We demonstrate that the new class of exact solutions is physically reasonable and may be utilized to model a compact object. A detailed graphical analysis of the matter variables shows that the criteria for physical acceptability are satisfied. The energy conditions are satisfied, causality is not violated, and the body is stable in terms of cracking, the Harrison–Zeldovich–Novikov stability criterion, and the adiabatic index inequality. It is, therefore, possible to geometrically describe a compact object with a conformal symmetry for an astrophysical application. |
