Analytical models for gravitating radiating systems
B. P. Brassel, S. D. Maharaj, G. Govender
We analyse the gravitational behaviour of a relativistic heat conducting fluid in a shear-free spherically symmetric spacetime. We show that the isotropy of pressure is a consisten…
The effect of a two-fluid atmosphere on relativistic stars
Gabriel Govender, Byron P. Brassel, Sunil D. Maharaj
We model the physical behaviour at the surface of a relativistic radiating star in the strong gravity limit. The spacetime in the interior is taken to be spherically symmetrical an…
Radiating stars with generalised Vaidya atmospheres
S. D. Maharaj, G. Govender, M. Govender
We model the gravitational behaviour of a radiating star when the exterior geometry is the generalised Vaidya spacetime. The interior matter distribution is shear-free and undergoi…
Thermal Behaviour of Euclidean Stars
G. Govender, M. Govender, K. S. Govinder
A recent study of dissipative collapse considered a contracting sphere in which the areal and proper radii are equal throughout its evolution. The interior spacetime was matched to…
