Scientific paper

The authors show that, even taking into account redistribution of angular momentum, the ratio (a/m) (a/m = cJ/GM2, where J and M are the total angular momentum and gravitational mass) of a collapsing and rotating body varies slowly with the mass, when mass shedding takes place. Thus formation of an extended structure outside a collapsing body, like rings, discs or diffuse matter, is not in general a guarantee that the ratio (a/m) of the inner object is decreased appreciably from its initial value.
