Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamical instability for radiating anisotropic collapse
R. Chan,L. Herrera,N. O. Santos +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of local anisotropy and radiation in the onset of dynamical instabilities in free-streaming regime was investigated. But the role played by local anotropy was not investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamical Instability for Shearing Viscous Collapse
R. Chan,L. Herrera,N. O. Santos +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role played by the shear and the shearing viscosity in the onset of dynamical instabilities was studied. And the role of shear in the stability of the system was investigated in both the Newtonian and relativistic regimes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiating gravitational collapse with shear viscosity
TL;DR: In this article, a collapsing radiating star consisting of an isotropic fluid with shear viscosity undergoing radial heat flow with outgoing radiation was modeled and the behavior of the density, pressure, mass, luminosity and the effective adiabatic index was analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat flow and dynamical instability in spherical collapse
TL;DR: The effets de l'ecoulement thermique sur l'instabilite dynamique pour un effondrement spherique non adiabatique sont etudies dans le modele considere par Herrera L., Le Denmat G. et Santos N.O. as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bounded excursion stable gravastars and black holes
P. Rocha,A Y Miguelote,R. Chan,M. F. A. da Silva,N. O. Santos,N. O. Santos,Anzhong Wang,Anzhong Wang,Anzhong Wang +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that even if gravastars do indeed exist, that does not exclude the possibility of the existence of black holes in the Visser-Wiltshire model.
