We ask the following question: Of the exact solutions to Einstein's equations extant in the literature, how many could represent the field associated with an isolated static spherically symmetric perfect fluid source? The candidate…
As per general relativity (GR), there cannot be any superluminal propagation of energy. And thus, the sound speed in a continuous medium, $c_s=\sqrt{dp/d\rho}$, must be subluminal. However, if one would conceive of a {\em homogeneous}…
We present novel neutral and uncharged solutions that describe the cluster of Einstein in the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR). To this end, we use a tetrad field with non-diagonal spherical symmetry which gives the…
