Thermal Behaviour of Euclidean Stars

Abstract

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 the exterior Vaidya spacetime which generated a temporal evolution equation at the boundary of the collapsing sphere. We present a solution of the boundary condition which allows the study of the gravitational and thermodynamical behaviour of this particular radiating model.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
