Global visibility of a strong curvature singularity in nonmarginally bound dust collapse

Abstract

We investigate here the local versus global visibility of a space-time singularity formed due to the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric dust cloud having a non-zero velocity function. The conditions are investigated that ensure the global visibility of the singularity, in the sense that the outgoing null geodesics leave the boundary of the matter cloud in the future, whereas, in the past, these terminate at the singularity. Explicit examples of this effect are constructed. We require that this must be a strong curvature singularity in the sense of Tipler, to ensure the physical significance of the scenario considered. This may act as a counterexample to the weak cosmic censorship hypothesis.
