Astrophysics and Space Science, 359(1), 1-8.(Syed Ali Mardan and Muhammad Aziz ur Rehman) (IF 2.263 JCR Listed)https://escholar.umt.edu.pk/handle/123456789/3376In this paper, we investigate the role of electromagnetic field on the stability regions of charged selfgravitating compact objects by using the concept of cracking. For this purpose, we have applied local density perturbation scheme to the hydrostatic equilibrium equation as well as on physical parameters involved in the model. In particular, we have examined the cracking of charged compact objects like PSR J1614-2230, PSR J1903+327, Vela X-1, SMC X-1 and Cen X-3 with different values of charge. We conclude that these objects exhibit cracking and stability regions decreases with the increase of charge.enMathematicsSelf-gravitating · Charged compact objects · Cracking · Density perturbationArticle
