Defrosting the Born-Infeld dyonic frozen star with tachyon matter: spectrum of oscillations
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, Tamar Simhon
The frozen star is a model for the interior of an astrophysical black hole that is externally indistinguishable from the singular geometry of a Schwarzschild black hole, even thoug…
Formation of Frozen Stars from collapsing matter by tunneling
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, Tamar Simhon
The frozen star is a type of black hole mimicker: An ultracompact object whose exterior geometry resembles that of a general-relativistic black hole but differs in its matter compo…
Defrosting frozen stars: spectrum of non-radial oscillations
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, Tom Shindelman
The frozen star model describes a type of black hole mimicker; that is, a regular, horizonless, ultracompact object that behaves just like a Schwarzschild black hole from an extern…
Frozen stars: Black hole mimickers sourced by a string fluid
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved
The frozen star is a non-singular, ultracompact object that, to an external observer, looks exactly like a Schwarzschild black hole, but with a different interior geometry and matt…
Sourcing the Kerr geometry
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved
The Kerr metric is a vacuum solution of the Einstein equations outside of a rotating black hole, but what interior matter is actually rotating and sourcing the Kerr geometry? Here,…
Black holes as frozen stars: Regular interior geometry
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, Tom Shindelman +1
We have proposed a model geometry for the interior of a regular black hole mimicker, the frozen star, whose most startling feature is that each spherical shell in its interior is a…
Black holes as frozen stars
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, Tamar Simhon
We have recently proposed a model for a regular black hole, or an ultra-compact object, that is premised on having maximally negative radial pressure throughout the entirety of the…
Black holes and information: A new take on an old paradox
K. L. H. Bryan, A. J. M. Medved
Interest in the black hole information paradox has recently been catalyzed by the newer "firewall" argument. The crux of the updated argument is that previous solutions which relie…
Of Bounces, Branes and Bounds
A. J. M. Medved
Some recent studies have considered a Randall-Sundrum-like brane world evolving in the background of an anti-de Sitter Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. For this scenario, it has been…
