Self - Similar Collapse in Brans - Dicke Theory
We use the technique of conformal transformations to generate self-similar collapse in Brans-Dicke theory. We analyze the solutions concerning the critical behavior found recently by Choptuik. The critical exponent associated to the formation of black hole for near critical evolution is obtained. The role of the coupling parameter is discussed.
متن کاملConvergence to a self-similar solution in general relativistic gravitational collapse
We study the spherical collapse of a perfect fluid with an equation of state P = kρ by full general relativistic numerical simulations. For 0 < k ∼ 0.036, it has been known that there exists a general relativistic counterpart of the Larson-Penston self-similar Newtonian solution. The numerical simulations strongly suggest that, in the neighborhood of the center, generic collapse converges to th...
متن کاملAdvection-dominated Accretion: a Self-similar Solution
We consider viscous rotating accretion flows in which most of the viscously dissipated energy is stored as entropy rather than being radiated. Such advection-dominated flows may occur when the optical depth is either very small or very large. We obtain a family of self-similar solutions where the temperature of the accreting gas is nearly virial and the flow is quasi-spherical. The gas rotates ...
متن کاملSelf-similar optical wave collapse: observation of the Townes profile.
Analyses of many different types of nonlinear wave equations indicate that a collapsing wave will transform into a universal blowup profile regardless of its initial shape; that is, the amplitude of the wave increases as the spatial extent decreases in a self-similar fashion. We show experimentally that the spatial profile of a collapsing optical wave evolves to a specific circularly symmetric ...
متن کاملSelf-Similar Collapse of Scalar Field in Higher Dimensions
This paper constructs continuously self-similar solution of a spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a scalar field in n dimensions. The qualitative behavior of these solutions is explained, and closed-form answers are provided where possible. Equivalence of scalar field couplings is used to show a way to generalize minimally coupled scalar field solutions to the model with general cou...
