We study the dynamical instability of a spherically symmetric anisotropic fluid which collapses adiabatically under the condition of vanishing expansion scalar. The Newtonian and post Newtonian regimes are considered in detail. It is shown that within those two approximations the adiabatic index $Gamma_1$, measuring the fluid stiffness, does not play any role. Instead, the range of instability is determined by the anisotropy of the fluid pressures and the radial profile of the energy density, independently of its stiffness, in a way which is fully consistent with results previously obtained from the study on the Tolman mass.

We consider spherically symmetric distributions of anisotropic fluids with a central vacuum cavity, evolving under the condition of vanishing expansion scalar. Some analytical solutions are found satisfying Darmois junction conditions on both delimit ing boundary surfaces, while some others require the presence of thin shells on either (or both) boundary surfaces. The solutions here obtained model the evolution of the vacuum cavity and the surrounding fluid distribution, emerging after a central explosion. This study complements a previously published work where modeling of the evolution of such kind of systems was achieved through a different kinematical condition.
We investigate the thermodynamics of FRW (Friedmann-Robertson-Walker) universe in the extended phase space. We generalize the unified first law with a cosmological constant $Lambda$ by using the Misner-Sharp energy. We treat the cosmological constant as the thermodynamic pressure of the system, and derive thermodynamic equation of state $P = P(V, T)$ for the FRW universe. To clarify our general result, we present two applications of this thermodynamic equation of state, including Joule-Thomson expansions and efficiency of the Carnot heat engines. These investigations lead to physical insights of the evolution of the universe in view of thermodynamics.
In [Schmidt PRD 80 123003 (2009)], the author suggested that dynamical dark energy (DDE) propagating on the phantom brane could mimick $Lambda$CDM. Schmidt went on to derive a phenomenological expression for $rho_{rm DE}$ which could achieve this. We demonstrate that while Schmidts central premise is correct, the expression for $rho_{rm DE}$ derived in Schmidt (2009) is flawed. We derive the correct expression for $rho_{rm DE}$ which leads to $Lambda$CDM-like expansion on the phantom brane. We also show that DDE on the brane can be associated with a Quintessence field and derive a closed form expression for its potential $V(phi)$. Interestingly the $alpha$-attractor based potential $V(phi) propto coth^2{lambdaphi}$ makes braneworld expansion resemble $Lambda$CDM. However the two models can easily be distinguished on the basis of density perturbations which grow at different rates on the braneworld and in $Lambda$CDM.
Spinning bosonic stars (SBSs) can form from the gravitational collapse of a dilute cloud of scalar/Proca particles with non-zero angular momentum. In a recent work we found that the scalar stars are transient due to a non-axisymmetric instability whi ch triggers the loss of angular momentum. We further study the dynamical formation of SBSs using 3-dimensional numerical-relativity simulations of the Einstein-(massive, complex)Klein-Gordon system and of the Einstein-(complex)Proca system. We incorporate a quartic self-interaction potential in the scalar case to gauge its effect on the instability; we investigate (m=2) Proca stars to assess their stability; we attempt to relate the instability of SBSs to the growth rate of azimuthal density modes and the existence of a corotation point. We show that: the self-interaction potential can only delay the instability in scalar SBSs; m=2 Proca stars always migrate to the stable m=1 spheroidal family; unstable m=2 Proca stars and m=1 scalar boson stars exhibit a corotation point. This establishes a parallelism with rotating neutron stars affected by dynamical bar-mode instabilities. We compute the gravitational waves (GWs) emitted and investigate the detectability of the waveforms comparing the characteristic strain of the signal with the sensitivity curves of a variety of detectors, computing the signal-to-noise ratio. By assuming that the characteristic damping timescale of the bar-like deformation in SBSs is only set by GWs emission and not by viscosity (unlike in neutron stars), we find that the post-collapse emission could be orders of magnitude more energetic than that of the bar-mode instability itself. Our results indicate that GW observations of SBSs might be within the reach of future experiments, offering a potential means to establish the existence of such stars and to place tight constraints on the mass of the bosonic particle.
When faced with two nigh intractable problems in cosmology -- how to remove the original cosmological constant problem and how to parametrize modified gravity to explain current cosmic acceleration -- we can make progress by counterposing them. The w ell tempered solution to the cosmological constant through degenerate scalar field dynamics also relates disparate Horndeski gravity terms, making them contrapuntal. We derive the connection between the kinetic term $K$ and braiding term $G_3$ for shift symmetric theories (including the running Planck mass $G_4$), extending previous work on monomial or binomial dependence to polynomials of arbitrary finite degree. We also exhibit an example for an infinite series expansion. This contrapuntal condition greatly reduces the number of parameters needed to test modified gravity against cosmological observations, for these golden theories of gravity.
