Phases of massive scalar field collapse
We study critical behavior in the collapse of massive spherically symmetric scalar fields. We observe two distinct types of phase transition at the threshold of black hole formation. Type II phase transitions occur when the radial extent (λ) of the initial pulse is less than the Compton wavelength (μ) of the scalar field. The critical solution is that found by Choptuik in the collapse of massle...
متن کاملUnderstanding critical collapse of a scalar field
I construct a spherically symmetric solution for a massless real scalar field minimally coupled to general relativity which is discretely self-similar (DSS) and regular. This solution coincides with the intermediate attractor found by Choptuik in critical gravitational collapse. The echoing period is ∆ = 3.4453 ± 0.0005. The solution is continued to the future self-similarity horizon, which is ...
متن کاملCritical collapse of a massive vector field
Critical gravitational collapse was first found by Choptuik[1] in simulations of a spherically symmetric massless scalar field. A natural question to pose is then how critical collapse behaves when the scalar field has a mass, since this will introduce a characteristic length that destroys the scale invariance of the field equations. This question was studied by Brady et. al.[2] The results of ...
متن کاملExact solution for scalar field collapse.
We give an exact spherically symmetric solution for the Einstein-scalar field system. The solution may be interpreted as an inhomogeneous dynamical scalar field cosmology. The spacetime has a timelike conformal Killing vector field and is asymptotically conformally flat. It also has black or white hole-like regions containing trapped surfaces. We describe the properties of the apparent horizon ...
متن کاملScalar field collapse in three - dimensions
Scalar field collapse in three-dimensions. Abstract We study an analytical solution to the Einstein's equations in 2 + 1-dimensions, representing the collapse of a circularly symmetric, minimally coupled, massless, scalar field. Depending on the value of certain parameters , this solution exhibits all three, known, end states of a collapse situation: Minkowski space-time after a bouncing, naked...
