Strengths of naked singularities in Tolman-Bondi spacetimes

  • 1. York Univ. (UK). Dept. of Mathematics

Description

Christodoulou's recent analysis of naked singularities in time-symmetric Tolman-Bondi collapse is simplified and generalized to a wider class of Tolman-Bondi models. The strengths of the naked singularities are assessed in terms of limiting focusing conditions. (author)
