We describe the transition of a graviationally radiating, axially and reflection symmetric dissipative fluid, to a non--radiating state. It is shown that very shortly after the end of the radiating regime, at a time scale of the order the…

We investigate electromagnetic and gravitational radiation generated during the process of the tidal stripping of a white dwarf star circulating a black hole. We go beyond Chandrasekhar's ideas and not only consider a white dwarf itself as…
Observational advances over the last decade reveal that star formation is associated with the simultaneous presence of gravitationally collapsing gas, bipolar outflow, and an accretion disk. Two theoretical views of star formation suppose…

We found equilibrium conditions for a self-gravitating toroidal vortex by taking into account thermal pressure. These conditions are shown to significantly differ from those for a disk and a sphere. The evolution of a thin vortex turns it…
We study the gravitational collapse of a rotating cylindrical null shell with flat interior and the metric of a spinning cosmic string as the exterior. We see that there is a critical radius, where the energy density of the shell vanishes…
In this paper we investigate the gravothermal instability of spherical stellar systems endowed with a radially anisotropic velocity distribution. We focus our attention on the effects of anisotropy on the conditions for the onset of the…
A massive star undergoes a continual gravitational collapse when the pressures inside the collapsing star become insufficient to balance the pull of gravity. The Physics of gravitational collapse of stars is well studied. Using general…
