An exact time-dependent interior Schwarzschild solution

Abstract

We present a time-dependent uniform-density interior Schwarzschild solution, an exact solution to the Einstein field equations. Our solution describes the collapse (or the time-reversed expansion) of an object from an infinite radius to an intermediate radius of 9/8 of the Schwarzschild radius, at which time a curvature singularity appears at the origin, and then continues beyond the singularity to a gravastar with radius equal to the Schwarzschild radius.
