In this paper, we geometrically establish yet another correspondence between Newtonian mechanics and general relativity by connecting the Buchdahl bound and the Virial theorem. Buchdahl stars are defined by the saturation of the Buchdahl…
In General Relativity, there exist two objects of limiting compactness, one with a null boundary defining the horizon of a black hole and the other with a timelike boundary defining a Buchdahl star. The two are characterized by…
It is noteworthy that limiting compactness of a static bounded configuration is characterized by a general principle: \textit{one, by equipartition of mass between inside and outside, and the other by vanishing of energy inside.} The former…
The main aim of this paper is essentially to point out that the Buchdahl compactness limit of a static object is given by \it{gravitational field energy being less than or equal to half of its non-gravitational matter energy}. It is thus…
It was shown long back in \cite{Dadhich97} that a non-extremal black hole cannot be converted into an extremal one by test particle adiabatic accretion. The Buchdahl star is the most compact object without horizon and is defined by $\Phi(R)…
The Schwarzschild interior solution, when combined with the assumption of a finite central pressure, leads to the well-known Buchdahl bound. This bound establishes an upper limit on the mass-to-radius ratio of an object, which is equivalent…
We study equilibrium configurations of a homogenous ball of matter in a bootstrapped description of gravity which includes a gravitational self-interaction term beyond the Newtonian coupling. Both matter density and pressure are accounted…
A Buchdahl star is a highly compact star for which the boundary radius $R$ obeys $R=\frac98 r_+$, where $r_+$ is the gravitational radius of the star itself. A quasiblack hole is a maximum compact star, or more generically a maximum compact…
Buchdahl star is the most compact object without an event horizon and is an excellent candidate for a black hole mimicker. Unlike black holes, rotating Buchdahl star can be over-extremal with respect to the black hole, sustaining a larger…
We obtain the Buchdahl compactness limit for a pure Lovelock static fluid star and verify that the limit following from the uniform density Schwarzschild's interior solution, which is universal irrespective of the gravitational theory…
We study generalizations of Buchdahl's compactness limits for perfect-fluid star solutions of $D$-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to higher-curvature corrections. We focus on Quasi-topological theories involving infinite towers of…
One of the theoretical motivations behind the belief that black holes as described by general relativity exist in nature is that it is hard to find matter configurations that mimic their properties, especially their compactness. One of the…
A star surrounded by a black hole generated by it is analyzed. For an outer static observer the black hole mass (and radius) depends on his position in the gravitational field of the star. In spite of the black hole presence, the geometry…
Black hole and Buchdahl star are identified respectively by $\Phi(R)=1/2, 4/9$ where $g_{tt}=1-2\Phi(R)$ for a spherically symmetric static metric. We investigate the maximum force for black hole and Buchdahl star when one of the…
The so-called Buchdahl limit is not yet fully understood in the context of theories of gravity beyond the Einsteinian framework. In this investigation, we generalize this limit for the case of static, spherically-symmetric, relativistic…
A foundational theorem due to Buchdahl states that, within General Relativity (GR), the maximum compactness $\mathcal{C}\equiv GM/(Rc^2)$ of a static, spherically symmetric, perfect fluid object of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is…
Very compact stars seem to be forbidden in General Relativity. While Buchdahl's theorem sets an upper bound on compactness, further no-go results rely on the existence of two light rings, the inner of which has been associated to…
In Einstein gravity, matter with an arbitrarily small density can be a black hole. Pressure in the star diverges if size of the star is smaller than 9/8 of the Schwarzschild radius, implying the gravitational collapse into a black hole. By…
Black hole horizon is usually defined as the limit for existence of timelike worldline or when a spatially bound surface turns oneway (it is crossable only in one direction). It would be insightful and physically appealing to find its…
We generalise the Buchdahl-Bondi limit for the case of static, spherically symmetric, relativistic compact stars immersed in Schwarzschild vacuum in f(R)-theory of gravity, subject to very generic regularity, thermodynamic stability and…
