We study gravitational collapse with anisotropic pressures, whose end stage can mimic space-times that are seeded by galactic dark matter. To this end, we identify a class of space-times (with conical defects) that can arise out of such a…
A generic mechanism of collapse in the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with attractive interparticle interactions is gained by reformulating this equation as Newton's equation of motion for a system of particles with a constraint. 'Quantum…
We investigate the dynamical nature of the collapse process of a spherically symmetric star in quasi-static hydrodynamical equilibrium. The star collapses from an initial static configuration by dissipating energy in the form of a radial…
We consider the evolution of an initially cold, spherically symmetric system of self-gravitating particles. At early times the system undergoes self-similar collapse of the type described by Fillmore & Goldreich and Bertschinger. This stage…
