Black holes (BHs) play a central role in physics. However, gathering observational evidence for their existence is a notoriously difficult task. Current strategies to quantify the evidence for BHs all boil down to looking for signs of highly compact, horizonless bodies. Here, we study particle creation by objects which collapse to form ultra-compact configurations, with surface at an areal radius $R=R_{f}$ satisfying $1-(2M/R_{f})= epsilon^{2}ll 1$ with $M$ the object mass. We assume that gravitational collapse proceeds in a `standard manner until $R=R_{f}+2M epsilon^{2beta}$, where $beta>0$, and then slows down to form a static object of radius $R_{f}$. In the standard collapsing phase, Hawking-like thermal radiation is emitted, which is as strong as the Hawking radiation of a BH with the same mass but lasts only for $sim 40~(M/M_{odot})[44+ln (10^{-19}/epsilon)]~mu mbox{s}$. Thereafter, in a very large class of models, there exist two bursts of radiation separated by a very long dormant stage. The first burst occurs at the end of the transient Hawking radiation, and is followed by a quiescent stage which lasts for $sim 6times 10^{6}~(epsilon/10^{-19})^{-1}(M/M_{odot})~mbox{yr}$. Afterwards, the second burst is triggered, after which there is no more particle production and the star is forever dark. In a model with $beta=1$, both the first and second bursts outpower the transient Hawking radiation by a factor $sim 10^{38}(epsilon/10^{-19})^{-2}$.

We discuss a proposal on how gravitational collapse of a NEC (Null Energy Condition) violating spherically symmetric fluid distribution can avoid the formation of a zero proper volume singularity and eventually lead to a Lorentzian wormhole geometry. Our idea is illustrated using a time-evolving wormhole spacetime in which, we show how a collapsing sphere may never reach a zero proper volume end-state. The nature of geodesic congruences in such spacetimes is considered and analyzed. Our construction is inspired from a recently proposed static wormhole geometry, the multi-parameter Simpson-Visser line element, which is known to unite wormholes and black holes (regular and singular) in a single framework.
We perform numerical simulations of the gravitational collapse of a k-essence scalar field. When the field is sufficiently strongly gravitating, a black hole forms. However, the black hole has two horizons: a light horizon (the ordinary black hole horizon) and a sound horizon that traps k-essence. In certain cases the k-essence signals can travel faster than light and the sound horizon is inside the light horizon. Under those circumstances, k-essence signals can escape from the black hole. Eventually, the two horizons merge and the k-essence signals can no longer escape.
Creation of thermal distribution of particles by a black hole is independent of the detail of gravitational collapse, making the construction of the eternal horizons suffice to address the problem in asymptotically flat spacetimes. For eternal de Sitter black holes however, earlier studies have shown the existence of both thermal and non-thermal particle creation, originating from the non-trivial causal structure of these spacetimes. Keeping this in mind we consider this problem in the context of a quasistationary gravitational collapse occurring in a $(3+1)$-dimensional eternal de Sitter, settling down to a Schwarzschild- or Kerr-de Sitter spacetime and consider a massless minimally coupled scalar field. There is a unique choice of physically meaningful `in vacuum here, defined with respect to the positive frequency cosmological Kruskal modes localised on the past cosmological horizon ${cal C^-}$, at the onset of the collapse. We define our `out vacuum at a fixed radial coordinate `close to the future cosmological horizon, ${cal C^+}$, with respect to positive frequency outgoing modes written in terms of the ordinary retarded null coordinate, $u$. We trace such modes back to ${cal C^-}$ along past directed null geodesics through the collapsing body. Some part of the wave will be reflected back without entering it due to the greybody effect. We show that these two kind of traced back modes yield the two temperature spectra and fluxes subject to the aforementioned `in vacuum. Since the coordinate $u$ used in the `out modes is not well defined on a horizon, estimate on how `close we might be to ${cal C^+}$ is given by estimating backreaction. We argue no other reasonable choice of the `out vacuum would give rise to any thermal spectra. Our conclusions remain valid for all non-Nariai class black holes, irrespective of the relative sizes of the two horizons.
We examine the dynamics of a self--gravitating magnetized electron gas at finite temperature near the collapsing singularity of a Bianchi-I spacetime. Considering a general and appropriate and physically motivated initial conditions, we transform Einstein--Maxwell field equations into a complete and self--consistent dynamical system amenable for numerical work. The resulting numerical solutions reveal the gas collapsing into both, isotropic (point-like) and anisotropic (cigar-like) singularities, depending on the initial intensity of the magnetic field. We provide a thorough study of the near collapse behavior and interplay of all relevant state and kinematic variables: temperature, expansion scalar, shear scalar, magnetic field, magnetization and energy density. A significant qualitative difference in the behavior of the gas emerges in the temperature range $hbox{T} sim10^{4}hbox{K}$ and $hbox{T}sim 10^{7}hbox{K}$.
In this paper, we consider the mimetic gravitational theory to derive a novel category of anisotropic star models. To end and to put the resulting differential equations into a closed system, the form of the metric potential $g_{rr}$ as used by Tolman (Tolman 1939) is assumed as well as a linear form of the equation-of-state. The resulting energy-momentum components, energy-density, and radial and tangential pressures contain five constants; three of these are determined through the junction condition, matching the interior with the exterior Schwarzschild solution the fourth is constrained by the vanishing of the radial pressure on the boundary and the fifth is constrained by a real compact star. The physical acceptability of our model is tested using the data of the pulsar 4U 1820-30. The stability of this model is evaluated using the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation and the adiabatic index and it is shown to be stable. Finally, our model is challenged with other compact stars demonstrating that it is consistent with those stars.
