Influence of Expanding Space on the Gravitational Fields surrounding Individual Stars.
- Authors
VAIDYA, P. C.; SHAH, K. B.
- Abstract
Einstein and Strauss1 have found solutions of the gravitational field equations of general relativity μ, ν = 1, 2, 3, 4, such that (i) outside a spherical boundary r = R1 (R1 is a constant), the metric is homogeneous and isotropic, the co-ordinates are co-moving (vr = 0, r = 1, 2, 3) and the density ρ does not vanish ; (ii) inside r = R1, the metric is spherically symmetric and ρ = 0, except for a possible singularity at or near the space-origin.
