Gravitational Collapse of Dust with a Cosmological Constant

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-10-31 v2 Astrophysics

Abstract

The recent analysis of Markovic and Shapiro on the effect of a cosmological constant on the evolution of a spherically symmetric homogeneous dust ball is extended to include the inhomogeneous and degenerate cases. The histories are shown by way of effective potential and Penrose-Carter diagrams.
