Collapsing Layers on Schwarzschild-Lemaitre Geodesics
arXiv:0710.4058 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.76.104006
Abstract
We discuss Israel layers collapsing inward from rest at infinity along Schwarzschild-Lemaitre geodesics. The dynamics of the collapsing layer and its equation of state are developed. There is a general equation of state which is approximately polytropic in the limit of very low pressure. The equation of state establishes a new limit on the stress-density ratio.
