Abstract
We provide a set of exact spherically symmetric solutions describing the interior of a relativistic star under \(f(T)\) modified gravity. To tackle the problem with lucidity we also assume the existence of a conformal Killing vector field within this \(f(T)\) gravity. We study several cases of interest to explore physically valid features of the solutions.
