We study the heat capacity of a static system of self-gravitating radiations analytically in the context of general relativity. To avoid the complexity due to a conical singularity at the center, we excise the central part and replace it with a regular spherically symmetric distribution of matters of which specifications we are not interested in. We assume that the mass inside the inner boundary and the locations of the inner and the outer boundaries are given. Then, we derive a formula relating the variations of physical parameters at the outer boundary with those at the inner boundary. Because there is only one free variation at the inner boundary, the variations at the outer boundary are related, which determines the heat capacity. To get an analytic form for the heat capacity, we use the thermodynamic identity $delta S_{rm rad} = beta delta M_{rm rad}$ additionally, which is derived from the variational relation of the entropy formula with the restriction that the mass inside the inner boundary does not change. Even if the radius of the inner boundary of the shell goes to zero, in the presence of a central conical singularity, the heat capacity does not go to the form of the regular sphere. An interesting discovery is that another legitimate temperature can be defined at the inner boundary which is different from the asymptotic one $beta^{-1}$.

We study a static system of self-gravitating radiations confined in a sphere by using numerical and analytical calculations. Due to the scaling symmetry of radiations, most of main properties of a solution can be represented as a segment of a solution curve on a plane of two-dimensional scale invariant variables. We define an `approximate horizon (AH) from the analogy with an apparent horizon. Any solution curve contains a unique point which corresponds to the AH. A given solution is uniquely labelled by three parameters representing the solution curve, the size of the AH, and the sphere size, which are an alternative of the data at the outer boundary. Various geometrical properties including the existence of an AH and the behaviors around the center can be identified from the parameters. We additionally present an analytic solution of the radiations on the verge of forming a blackhole. Analytic formulae for the central mass of the naked singularity are given.
Dynamics and collapse of collisionless self-gravitating systems is described by the coupled collisionless Boltzmann and Poisson equations derived from $f(R)$-gravity in the weak field approximation. Specifically, we describe a system at equilibrium by a time-independent distribution function $f_0(x,v)$ and two potentials $Phi_0(x)$ and $Psi_0(x)$ solutions of the modified Poisson and collisionless Boltzmann equations. Considering a small perturbation from the equilibrium and linearizing the field equations, it can be obtained a dispersion relation. A dispersion equation is achieved for neutral dust-particle systems where a generalized Jeans wave-number is obtained. This analysis gives rise to unstable modes not present in the standard Jeans analysis (derived assuming Newtonian gravity as weak filed limit of $f(R)=R$). In this perspective, we discuss several self-gravitating astrophysical systems whose dynamics could be fully addressed in the framework of $f(R)$-gravity.
We address the question whether a medium featuring $p + rho = 0$, dubbed $Lambda$- medium, has to be necessarily a cosmological constant. By using effective field theory, we show that this is not the case for a class of media comprising perfect fluids, solids and special super solids, providing an explicit construction. The low energy excitations are non trivial and lensing, the growth of large scale structures can be used to clearly distinguish $Lambda$-media from a cosmological constant.
We examine the dynamics of a self--gravitating magnetized neutron gas as a source of a Bianchi I spacetime described by the Kasner metric. The set of Einstein-Maxwell field equations can be expressed as a dynamical system in a 4-dimensional phase space. Numerical solutions of this system reveal the emergence of a point--like singularity as the final evolution state for a large class of physically motivated initial conditions. Besides the theoretical interest of studying this source in a fully general relativistic context, the resulting idealized model could be helpful in understanding the collapse of local volume elements of a neutron gas in the critical conditions that would prevail in the center of a compact object.
Both cosmological expansion and black holes are ubiquitous features of our observable Universe, yet exact solutions connecting the two have remained elusive. To this end, we study self-gravitating classical fields within dynamical spherically symmetric solutions that can describe black holes in an expanding universe. After attempting a perturbative approach of a known black-hole solution with scalar hair, we show by exact methods that the unique scalar field action with first-order derivatives that can source shear-free expansion around a black hole requires noncanonical kinetic terms. The resulting action is an incompressible limit of k-essence, otherwise known as the cuscuton theory, and the spacetime it describes is the McVittie metric. We further show that this solution is an exact solution to the vacuum Hov{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity with anisotropic Weyl symmetry.
