Finite temperature makes theoretical white dwarf models in scalar-tensor gravity larger at the same mass, creating a degeneracy with modified gravity signatures.
While the field is driven to zero in high density re- gions, symmetry breaking causes it to converge towards the potential minimum at low densities
