The crossing of two dust shells is considered as a simplified model of a collapsing thick layer of dust. We use the Israel's formalism to describe the development of two shells of dust which interact only gravitationally. The formalism is developed in both Schwarzschild and Kruskal coordinates.

Dynamics of crossing cosmological shells
The crossing of three dust shells is considered as a simplified model for shell crossing during the spherically symmetric collapse of dust which interacts only gravitationally. The formalism is…
Friedmann universe as a limit of dust shell model
We generalize the equations of motion of a shell for a sequence of thin shells and derive the general form of the expansion law of the dust shell model which represents the FRW universe when we take…
Repeated crossing of two concentric spherical thin-shells with charge
Interaction / collision of two concentric spherical thin-shells of linear fluid resulting in collapse has been considered recently. We show that addition of finely tuned electric charges on the…
On the dynamics of relativistic multi-layer spherical shell systems
The relativistic time evolution of multi-layer spherically symmetric shell systems—consisting of infinitely thin shells separated by vacuum regions—is examined. Whenever two shells collide the…

On crossing dust shells
The crossing of two dust shells is considered as a simplified model for shell crossing during the spherically symmetric collapse of dust. It is shown that one encounters the same problems as in the…
Thin spherical shells
The equation of motion of a thin spherical timelike shell is obtained directly from the Lanczos equations for all spherically symmetric embedding four-geometries. No explicit form for the intrinsic…
Collision of Timelike Shells in Spherically Symmetric Spacetime
The spacetime representing a collision of two time-like shells is studied. This spacetime is constructed by 'cutting and pasting' four distinct Reissner-NordstrSitter spacetimes. The junction…
Crossing of Spherical Massive Shells in Vacuum Space-Time
We investigate collisions between two spherical massive shells in vacuum space-time by assuming that the shells are transparent. We give an expression for the energy transfer and the change in the…
