Generalized JMN Naked Singularity Models
Jay Verma Trivedi, Pankaj S. Joshi
We construct a generalized class of Joshi-Malafarina-Narayan (JMN) naked singularity spacetimes that arise as equilibrium end states of gravitational collapse with non-vanishing ta…

Degeneracy in Accretion Disk Spectra from Naked Singularities and Kerr Black Holes: Application to the AGN MCG-06-30-15
Vishva Patel, Sayantan Bhattacharya, Sudip Bhattacharyya +1
Theoretical studies suggest that gravitational collapse can form either a black hole or a visible (naked) singularity. Identifying observational signatures that distinguish these t…

Tidal disruption of a neutron star near naked singularity
Ashok B. Joshi, Pankaj S. Joshi, Sudip Bhattacharyya
We investigate the tidal disruption of a neutron star (NS) near a black hole (BH), and for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, near a naked singularity (NaS). For a BH wi…
