On the features of Matese-Whitman mass function

In the present paper we exhaustively examine the physical status of the socalled Matese-Whitman mass function [J.J. Matese and P.G. Whitman, Phys. Rev. D, 22, 1270 (1980)]. As a first step, we construct the relevant Einstein field equations with an anisotropic matter distribution under the approach of Conformal killing Vector. In the intermideate step we find a set of exact solutions by using the Matese-Whitman mass function. Eventually we conduct several physical tests to explore features of the applied mass function in connection to the specific compact stars. It can be observed that all the features of the model based on the Matese-Whitman mass function are of physical interests.
