Cracking and complexity of self-gravitating dissipative compact objects
L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco
The concept of cracking refers to the tendency of a fluid distribution to "split'', once it abandons the equilibrium. In this manuscript we develop a general formalism to describe…
The post--quasi-static approximation: An analytical approach to gravitational collapse
L. Herrera, A. Di prisco, J. Ospino
A semi--numerical approach proposed many years ago for describing gravitational collapse in the post--quasi--static approximation, is modified in order to avoid the numerical integ…
Irreversibility and gravitational radiation: A proof of Bondi's conjecture
L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. Ospino
It is shown that the evolution of an axially and reflection symmetric fluid distribution, satisfying the Tolman condition for thermal equilibrium, is not accompanied by the emissio…
Deconstructing Frame Dragging
L. Herrera
The vorticity of world lines of observers associated to the rotation of a massive body was reported by Lense and Thirring more than a century ago. In their example the frame draggi…
The transition of a gravitationally radiating, dissipative fluid, to equilibrium
L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. Ospino
We describe the transition of a graviationally radiating, axially and reflection symmetric dissipative fluid, to a non--radiating state. It is shown that very shortly after the end…
The spacetime outside a source of gravitational radiation: The axially symmetric null fluid
L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. Ospino
We carry out a study of the exterior of an axially and reflection symmetric source of gravitational radiation. The exterior of such a source is filled with a null fluid produced by…
