AbstractBy using the most general form of Einstein equations for General Relativistic (GTR) spherical collapse of an isolated fluid having arbitrary equation of state and radiation transport properties, we show that they obey a Global Constraint, 2GM(r, t)/R(r, t)c2≤1, where R is the “invariant circumference radius”, t is the comoving time, and M(r, t) is the gravitational mass enclosed within a comoving shell r. This inequality specifically shows that, contrary to the traditional intuitive… CONTINUE READING
