Charged relativistic spheres with generalized potentials
S. Thirukkanesh, S. D. Maharaj
A new class of exact solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell system is found in closed form. This is achieved by choosing a generalised form for one of the gravitational potentials and a…
Some new static charged spheres
S. D. Maharaj, S. Thirukkanesh
We present new exact solutions for the Einstein-Maxwell system in static spherically symmetric interior spacetimes. For a particular form of the gravitational potentials and the el…
Radiating relativistic matter in geodesic motion
S. Thirukkanesh, S. D. Maharaj
We study the gravitational behaviour of a spherically symmetric radiating star when the fluid particles are in geodesic motion. We transform the governing equation into a simpler f…
Charged anisotropic matter with linear equation of state
S. Thirukkanesh, S. D. Maharaj
We consider the general situation of a compact relativistic body with anisotropic pressures in the presence of the electromagnetic field. The equation of state for the matter distr…
Generating potentials via difference equations
S. D. Maharaj, S. Thirukkanesh
The condition for pressure isotropy, for spherically symmetric gravitational fields with charged and uncharged matter, is reduced to a recurrence equation with variable, rational c…
