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 shells apart from the cosmological constant serves to delay the collapse indefinitely, yielding an ever colliding system of two concentric fluid shells. Given the finely tuned charges this provides an example of a perpetual two-body motion in general relativity.

Stable thin-shells from 5-dimensional extremal Einstein–Yang–Mills fields
By employing exact Einstein–Yang–Mills (EYM) solution in [Formula: see text] dimensions we establish spherical thin-shells with mass and Yang–Mills charge. Remarkably these shells are stable against…
High energy collision without fine tuning: Acceleration and multiple collisions of shells in a bound system
High energy collision of massive bodies is investigated without fine tuning. We study multiple collisions of two spherical concentric shells in a gravitationally bound system and calculate the center…

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…
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…
On the crossing of thin shells
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…
Interacting shells in AdS spacetime and chaos
We study the simplest two-body problem in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime: two, infinitely thin, concentric spherical shells of matter. We include only gravitational interaction between the…

We study the gravitational collapse of two thin shells of matter, in asymptotically flat spacetime or constrained to move within a spherical box. We show that this simple two-body system has…

SummaryA solution of Einstein’s field equations is derived, representing a thin spherical shell of charged fluid, falling in a spherically symmetric field due to mass and charge at its centre. No…
