Non spherical sources of strong gravitational fields out of hydrostatic equilibrium

L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. Martinez

We describe the departure from equilibrium of matter distributions representing sources for a class of Weyl metric. It is shown that, for extremely high gravitational fields, sligh…

Breakdown of the linear approximation in the perturbative analysis of heat conduction in relativistic systems

L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. Martinez

We analyze the effects of thermal conduction in a relativistic fluid just after its departure from spherical symmetry, on a time scale of the order of relaxation time. Using first…

Gravitational collapse: A case for thermal relaxation

L. Herrera, J. Martinez

Two relativistic models for collapsing spheres at different stages of evolution, which include pre-relaxation processes, are presented. The influence of relaxation time on the outc…

Dissipative fluids out of hydrostatic equilibrium

L. Herrera, J. Martinez

In the context of the Müller-Israel-Stewart second order phenomenological theory for dissipative fluids, we analyze the effects of thermal conduction and viscosity in a relativisti…

On the Critical Behaviour of Heat Conducting Sphere out of Hydrostatic Equilibrium

L. Herrera, J. Martinez

We comment further on the behaviour of a heat conducting fluid when a characteristic parameter of the system approaches a critical value.

Thermal Conduction in Systems out of Hydrostatic Equilibrium

L. Herrera, A. Di Prisco, J. L. Hernandez-Pastora +2

We analyse the effects of thermal conduction in a relativistic fluid, just after its departure from hydrostatic equilibrium, on a time scale of the order of thermal relaxation time…
