The Wave Function of a Collapsing Star and Quantization Conditions

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A very simple minisuperspace describing the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapsing star is found. The semiclasical wave function of that model turn out to describe a bound state. For fixed initial radius of the collapsing star, the corrssponding Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition implies mass quantization. An extension of this model, and some consequences, are considered.
