Null Geodesic Expansion in Spherical Gravitational Collapse
We derive an expression for the expansion of outgoing null geodesics in spherical dust collapse and compute the limiting value of the expansion in the approach to singularity formation. An analogous expression is derived for the spherical collapse of a general form of matter. We argue on the basis of these results that the covered as well as the naked singularity solutions arising in spherical ...
متن کاملNonadiabatic Charged Spherical Gravitational Collapse
We present a complete set of the equations and matching conditions required for the description of physically meaningful charged, dissipative, spherically symmetric gravitational collapse with shear. Dissipation is described with both free-streaming and diffusion approximations. The effects of viscosity are also taken into account. The roles of different terms in the dynamical equation are anal...
متن کاملQuasi-Spherical Gravitational Collapse in Any Dimension
We study the occurrence and nature of naked singularities for a dust model with non-zero cosmological constant in (n + 2)-dimensional Szekeres space-times (which possess no Killing vectors) for n ≥ 2. We find that central shell-focusing singularities may be locally naked in higher dimensions but depend sensitively on the choice of initial data. In fact, the nature of the initial density determi...
متن کاملSpherical gravitational collapse in N-dimensions
We investigate here spherically symmetric gravitational collapse in a spacetime with an arbitrary number of dimensions and with a general type I matter field, which is a broad class that includes most of the physically reasonable matter forms. We show that given the initial data for matter in terms of the initial density and pressure profiles at an initial surface t = ti from which the collapse...
متن کاملGravitational Collapse of Barotropic Spherical Fluids
The gravitational collapse of spherical, barotropic perfect fluids is analyzed here. For the first time, the final state of these systems is characterized without resorting to simplifying assumptions such as self-similarity using a new approach based on non-linear o.d.e. techniques. Formation of naked singularities is shown to occur for solutions such that the mass function is sufficiently regu...
