Gravitational collapse of anisotropic cylindrical shearfree fluids with new exact interior solutions of GR
Marie-Noëlle Célérier, Nilton O. Santos
We present a study of shearfree gravitational collapse using cylindrically symmetric spacetimes whose interior is a non-rotating dissipative fluid bounded by a cylindrical hypersur…
Non-rigidly rotating stationary cylindrical dust spacetimes
R. Chan, N. O. Santos
We consider stationary rotating cylindrically symmetric dust spacetimes. We first show that the Maitra spacetime is the unique non-rigidly (non null shear scalar) rotating solution…
Gravitomagnetism in the Lewis cylindrical metrics
L. Filipe O. Costa, José Natário, N. O. Santos
The Lewis solutions describe the exterior gravitational field produced by infinitely long rotating cylinders, and are useful models for global gravitational effects. When the metri…
On the Matching Conditions for the Collapsing Cylinder
L. Herrera, M. A. H. MacCallum, N. O. Santos
We review the matching conditions for a collapsing anisotropic cylindrical perfect fluid, recently discussed in the literature (2005 {\it Class. Quantum Grav.} {\bf 22} 2407). It i…
Rotating Cylindrical Systems and Gravitomagnetism
B. Mashhoon, N. O. Santos
We discuss gravitomagnetism in connection with rotating cylindrical systems. In particular, the gravitomagnetic clock effect is investigated for the exterior vacuum field of an inf…
The Levi-Civita spacetime
M. F. A. da Silva, L. Herrera, F. M. Paiva +1
We consider two exact solutions of Einstein's field equations corresponding to a cylinder of dust with net zero angular momentum. In one of the cases, the dust distribution is homo…
