  • Anisotropic static spheres with linear equation of state in isotropic coordinates 
    Govender, M; Thirukkanesh, S. (Astrophysics and Space Science, 2015)
    In this paper we present a general framework for generating exact solutions to the Einstein field equations for static, anisotropic fluid spheres in comoving, isotropic coordinates obeying a linear equation of state of the ...
  • Causal heat flow in Bianchi type-V Universe 
    Govender, M; Thirukkanesh, S. (International Journal of Modern Physics, 2014)
    In this paper we investigate the role of causal heat transport in a spatially homogeneous, locally-rotationally symmetric Bianchi type-V cosmological model. In particular, the causal temperature profile of the cosmological ...
  • Dissipative collapse in the presence of Λ 
    Govender, M; Thirukkanesh, S. (International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 2009)
    We present the general junction conditions for the smooth matching of a spherically symmetric, shear-free spacetime to Vaidya’s outgoing metric across a four-dimensional time-like hypersurface in the presence of a cosmological ...
  • The final outcome of dissipative collapse in the presence of Λ, PRAMANA 
    Thirukkanesh, S.; Moopanar, S.; Govender, M (journal of Physics, 2012)
    We investigate the role played by the cosmological constant during gravitational collapse of a radiating star with vanishing Weyl stresses in the interior. We highlight the role played by the cosmological constant during ...
  • Radiating fluid sphere immersed in an anisotropic atmosphere 
    Naidu, N. F; Govender, M; Thirukkanesh, S; Maharaj, S. D (General Relativity and Gravitation, 2017)
    We model a radiating star undergoing dissipative gravitational collapse in the form of radial heat flux. The exterior of the collapsing star is described by the generalised Vaidya solution representing a mixture of null ...
  • The role of the electromagnetic field in dissipative collapse 
    Thirukkanesh, S; Govender, M (International Journal of Modern Physics, 2013)
    In this paper, we investigate the effect of charge on the collapse of a radiating, shearing sphere. The junction conditions required for the smooth matching of a general spherically symmetric spacetime (in the absence of ...
  • Spherically symmetric static matter configurations with vanishing radial pressure 
    Thirukkanesh, S.; Govender, M; Lortan, D. B (International Journal of Modern Physics, 2015)
    We present a new family of spherically symmetric, static solutions of the Einstein field equations in isotropic, comoving coordinates. The radial pressure at each interior point of these models vanishes yet equilibrium is ...
