    Author : Julian Boy; [2022]
    Keywords : General Relativity; Black holes; Physics; Kerr metric; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : An introduction to the thin-shell formalism and distributional approach to General Relativity is provided. The formalism is utilized to investigate possible distributions of matter that can act as a source to the Kerr metric. READ MORE

  3. 2. Derivation and stability determination of black hole metrics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Emma Svensson; [2018]
    Keywords : black holes; relativity; general relativity; kerr metric; schwarzschild metric; derivation; stability; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The Schwarzschild metric and the Kerr metric describe the gravitational fields around static and rotating black holes, respectively. Here, we derive the Kerr metric in a simpler way than how it was derived originally and determine the stability of the Schwarzschild metric. READ MORE
