Scientific paper

Models of geodesic accretion in general relativity indicate that the accreting matter would be unlikely to induce collapse of a neutron star into a black hole in a time less than the age of the Universe. It is suggested that the compression shock waves which appear to be a characteristic feature of nongeodesic accretion may compress a neutron star into a black hole in an astrophysically interesting, and indeed observable, time of the order of seconds.
