Scientific paper

A study is conducted of the behavior of a physical system which initially follows the relations of classical physics and subsequently, as a result of later developments, becomes subject to quantum-uncertainty considerations. The specific example considered involves the gravitational collapse of a spherical dust ball. According to classical physics a space-time singularity will finally result. The corresponding quantum mechanical result suggests a range of final states some of which are nonsingular.
