Gravitational Collapse of Homogeneous Scalar Fields
Conditions under which gravity coupled to self interacting scalar field determines singularity formation are found and discussed. It is shown that, under a suitable matching with an external space, the boundary, if collapses completely, may give rise to a naked singularity. Issues related to the strength of the singularity are discussed.
متن کاملDynamics of Homogeneous Scalar Fields with General Self-interaction Potentials: Cosmological and Gravitational Collapse Models
The general relativistic dynamics of a wide class of self-interacting, self-gravitating homogeneous scalar fields models is analyzed. The class is characterized by certain general conditions on the scalar field potential, which include both asymptotically polynomial and exponential behaviors. Within this class, we show that the generic evolution is always divergent in a finite time, and then ma...
متن کاملAsymptotics of gravitational collapse of scalar waves
Through a combination of analytic and numerical techniques, the formation of a black hole by a self-gravitating, spherically symmetric, massless scalar field is investigated. The evolution algorithm incorporates a Penrose compactification so that the Bondi mass, the news function, and other radiation zone limits can be obtained numerically. The late time behavior recently established by Christo...
متن کاملOn the Collapse of Charged Scalar Fields
We explore numerically the evolution of a collapsing spherical shell of charged, massless scalar field. We obtain an external ReissnerNördstrom space-time, and an inner space-time that is bounded by a singularity on the Cauchy Horizon. We compare these results with previous analysis and discuss some of the numerical problems encountered.
متن کاملGenericity of Blackhole Formation in the Gravitational Collapse of Homogeneous Self-interacting Scalar Fields
The gravitational collapse of a wide class of self-interacting homogeneous scalar fields models is analyzed. The class is characterized by certain general conditions on the scalar field potential, which, in particular, include both asymptotically polynomial and exponential behaviors. Within this class, we show that the generic evolution is always divergent in a finite time, and then make use of...
