The Roche-Lobe Radius in Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Gravity

In this paper, we extend the standard calculation of the Roche lobe from the Newtonian potential to non-Newtonian models, specifically Yukawa-type and power-law potentials.

In this paper, we extend the standard calculation of the Roche lobe from the Newtonian potential to non-Newtonian models, specifically Yukawa-type and power-law potentials. These models are significant because they arise from unification theories, such as those involving extra…
