Coordinate effect: Vaidya solutions without integrating the field equations
From MaRDI portal
Publication:828801
Abstract: We extend Vaidya's algorithm for the description of a central mass losing or gaining energy due to electromagnetic-type radiation (`null dust') to the case of arbitrary radial corpuscular radiation. We also demonstrate the remarkable possibility of purely algebraic deduction of the Vaidya solution without integrating the field equations, and interpret this possibility as an artifact of curvature coordinates. Since Vaidya's approach by itself cannot lead to certain dependence of mass on spacetime coordinates, the search for a corresponding mass-function represents an independent issue. In this regard, as a perspective, we discuss an outlook on the problem of variable masses as a whole.
