Full text article available at https://doi.org/10.1007/s12043-022-02308-zA new regular model for a stellar sphere with quark matter is found. The model satisfies a neutral quark star with pressure anisotropy. In this model, we consider an ansatz of a new form of one of the gravitational potentials, and stellar masses consistent with other findings which describe the generation of astrophysical objects. New masses, radii and surface gravitational red-shifts in acceptable ranges are also obtained using our model. The model satisfies stability and energy conditions. The state of hydrostatic equilibrium for stability is obtained by analysing the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff (TOV) equation. All other matter variables and gravitational potentials are well behaved.enAnisotropyNeutral starQuark matterStellar massesStabilityAstrophysical objectsQuark starAnsatzGravitational potentialsArticle
