  • Recently, the theory of symmetric teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (STEGR) has gained much interest in the cosmology and astrophysics community. Within this theory, we discuss the method of deriving a stellar isotropic model. In this respect, we implement the equations of motion of STEGR theory to a spacetime that is symmetric in a spherical manner, resulting in a set of nonlinear differential equations with more unknowns than equations. To solve this issue, we assume a special form of $g_{tt}$, and suppose a null value of the anisotropy to obtain the form of $g_{rr}$. We then investigate the possibility of obtaining an isotropic stellar model consistent with observational data. To test the stability of our model, we apply the adiabatic index and the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation. Furthermore, we examine our model using different observed values of radii and masses of pulsars, showing that all of them fit in a consistent way.
