Magnetized Tolman-Bondi Collapse
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the gravitational implosion of magnetized matter by studying the inhomogeneous collapse of a weakly magnetized Tolman-Bondi spacetime. The role of the field is analyzed by looking at the convergence of neighboring particle worldlines. In particular, we identify the magnetically related stresses in the Raychaudhuri equation and use the Tolman-Bondi metric to evaluate their impact on the collapsing dust. We find that, despite the low energy level of the field, the Lorentz force dominates the advanced stages of the collapse, leading to a strongly anisotropic contraction. In addition, of all the magnetic stresses, those that resist the collapse are found to grow faster.

Strength and genericity of singularities in Tolman-Bondi-de Sitter collapse
We study the curvature strength and visibility of the central singularity arising in Tolman-Bondide Sitter collapse. We find that the singularity is visible and Tipler strong along an infinite number of timelike geodesics, independently of the initial data, and thus stable against perturbations of the latter.

متن کاملA Tolman-Bondi-Lemaitre Cell-Model for the Universe and Gravitational Collapse
A piecewise Tolman-Bondi-Lemaitre (TBL) cell-model for the universe incorporating local collapsing and expanding inhomogeneities is presented here. The cell-model is made up of TBL underdense and overdense spherical regions surrounded by an intermediate region of TBL shells embedded in an expanding universe. The cell-model generalizes the Friedmann as well as Einstein-Straus swiss-cheese models...
متن کاملHawking radiation from the quantum Lemâıtre–Tolman–Bondi model
Abstract In an earlier paper, we obtained exact solutions of the Wheeler–DeWitt equation for the Lemâıtre–Tolman–Bondi (LTB) model of gravitational collapse, employing a lattice regularization. In this paper, we derive Hawking radiation in non-marginally bound models from our exact solutions. We show that a non-vanishing energy function does not spoil the (approximate) Planck spectrum near the ...
متن کاملHigher dimensional inhomogeneous dust collapse and cosmic censorship
We investigate the occurrence and nature of a naked singularity in the gravitational collapse of an inhomogeneous dust cloud described by higher dimensional Tolman-Bondi space-times. The naked singularities are found to be gravitationally strong in the sense of Tipler. Higher dimensions seem to favour black holes rather than naked singularities.
متن کاملInitial Value Formalism for Lemaitre-tolman-bondi Collapse
Formulating a dust filled spherically symmetric metric utilizing the 3 + 1 formalism for general relativity, we show that the metric coefficients are completely determined by the matter distribution throughout the spacetime. Furthermore, the metric describes both inhomogeneous dust regions and also vacuum regions in a single coordinate patch, thus alleviating the need for complicated matching s...
