Hypercharge, Solar Structure, and Stellar Evolution
Abstract
The authors investigate the effect of proposed modifications to the gravitational law at short range on stellar structure and evolution. Changes to solar structure, neutrino fluxes, and oscillation frequencies are within current observational and theoretical uncertainties. Modifications to stellar lifetimes are large enough that they should be considered, if the suggested changes to gravitation prove correct.
