India, Jan. 19 -- A new study by researchers at Tezpur University has provided fresh insights into how gravity behaves inside the Sun, opening up new possibilities for testing alternative theories of gravity using solar observations.

The research, conducted by the Department of Physics at Tezpur University (TU), has been accepted for publication in Physical Review E, a leading journal of the American Physical Society (APS), known internationally for its rigorous peer-review standards.

Titled "Stability and Wave Dynamics in Polytropic Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld (EiBI) Gravitating Solar Plasmas", the study was carried out by Prof. Pralay Kumar Karmakar and Souvik Das, a Senior Research Fellow under the DST-INSPIRE programme. The work ...
