Dynamics of apparent horizons in quantum gravitational collapse

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2014-05-02 v1

Abstract

We study the gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field within the effective scenario of loop quantum gravity. Classical singularity is avoided and replaced by a quantum bounce in this model. It is shown that, quantum gravity effects predict a threshold scale below which no horizon can form as the collapse evolves towards the bounce.
