Although galaxy clusters have been proved to be wonderful laboratories for testing a whole zoo of modified theories of gravity, which dispense with dark energy as well as with dark matter, until recently there have been no works on obtaining limits on graviton mass, after the first paper on this subject way back in 1974. To fill the lacuna, we present bounds on graviton mass from three...

The formation and behaviour of compact objects are highly complex and relativistic phenomena that require numerical simulation to model accurately. Most of the existing studies on core-collapse supernovae and oscillating neutron stars are based on Newtonian gravity or effective potentials. However, the compactness of a (proto-)neutron star, defined as the ratio of the Schwarzschild radius to...
