Non-singular collapse of a dust ball in quantum conformal geometry
Description
It is shown that in the recently proposed formalism to study the effects of conformal quantum fluctuations in the space-time geometry, the collapse of a dust ball of mass M > 10-5g terminates at a distance of the order of the Planck length. There is no singularity in the space-time. (Auth.)
