One of the main challenges in astronomy is the direct observation of black holes. However, differentiating them from black holes through photon observations can be difficult if Ultra-Compact Objects with unstable circular photon orbits…
The gravastar model, which postulates a strongly correlated thin shell of anisotropic matter surrounding a region of anti-de Sitter space, has been proposed as an alternative to black holes. We discuss constraints that present-day…
The gravastar picture is an alternative model to the concept of a black hole, where there is an effective phase transition at or near where the event horizon is expected to form, and the interior is replaced by a de Sitter condensate. In…
We solve Einstein's equations for slowly-rotating gravitational condensate stars (gravastars) up to second order in the rotation by expanding about the spherically symmetric gravastar with de Sitter interior and Schwarzschild exterior…
This paper examines the structure of a gravitationally vacuum star (also known as gravastar) in the background of ${f}(\Re,\mathcal{T}^{2})$ theory. This hypothetical object can be treated as a substitute of a black hole, with three…
Black holes are normally and naturally associated to the end-point of gravitational collapse. Yet, alternatives have been proposed and a particularly interesting one is that of gravitational condensate stars, or gravastars. We here revisit…
We propose a unique stellar model under the $f(R,\mathcal{T})$ gravity by using the conjecture of Mazur-Mottola [P. Mazur and E. Mottola, Report number: LA-UR-01-5067., P. Mazur and E. Mottola, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 101, 9545 (2004)]…
This paper investigates the influence of charge on physical features of gravastars in the framework of energy-momentum squared gravity. A gravastar is an alternate model to a black hole that comprises of three distinct regions, namely the…
We construct generic spherically symmetric thin-shell gravastars by using the cut-and-paste procedure. We take considerable effort to make the analysis as general and unified as practicable; investigating both the internal physics of the…
Gravastars are considered as one of the prime exotic type compact objects which may be found at the end state of gravitational collapse of massive stars with a view to resolve the complexities that are pertinent in case of a black hole…
Viable alternatives to astrophysical black holes include hyper-compact objects without horizon, such as gravastars, boson stars, wormholes and superspinars. The authors have recently shown that typical rapidly-spinning gravastars and boson…
In this work we derive a gravastar model in Randall-Sundrum II braneworld scenario. Gravastars (or gravitationally vacuum stars) were proposed by Mazur and Mottola as systems of gravitational collapse alternative to black holes. The…
This paper investigates the gravastar model as a potential alternative to black holes, utilizing the Kuchowicz metric in the context of Rastall gravity. The model comprises three distinct regions: an interior with positive energy density…
Within the paradigm of non-perturbative Einstein gravity we study continuous curvature manifolds which possess de Sitter interiors and Kerr exteriors. These manifolds could represent the spacetime of rotating gravastars or other similar…
This article presents a new model-independent constraint for bouncing black hole geometries. Using the thin shell formalism, this constraint sets a bound on the minimal allowed radius of the time-like surface of the collapsing star at the…
In this work, we analyze the observational properties of thin-shell gravastars under two astrophysical frameworks, namely surrounded by optically-thin accretion disks and orbited by hot-spots. We consider the thin-shell gravastar model with…
We propose a new model of a {\it gravastar} admitting conformal motion. While retaining the framework of the Mazur-Mottola model, the gravastar is assumed to be internally charged, with an exterior defined by a Reissner-Nordstr{\"o}m rather…
The stability of thin shell wormholes and black holes to linearized spherically symmetric perturbations about a static equilibrium is analyzed. Thin shell formalism is explored and junctions formed from combinations of Schwarzschild,…
In this article, we are reporting for the first time the existence of gravastar configurations in the framework of K(R,T)-gravity, which can be treated as an alternative to a black hole (Mazur and Mottola). This strengthens how much this…
Tidal effects related to the traversability across thin shells are examined in spherically symmetric geometries. We focus mainly on shells separating inner from outer regions of gravastars (de Sitter -- i.e. $\Lambda>0$ -- interior and…
