Scientific paper

To better understand the gravitational collapse of stars, the junction conditions are studied for a collapsing, spherically symmetric nonadiabatic fluid which produces unpolarized radiation. The model chosen is the one proposed by Glass (1981), which represents an isotropic collapsing fluid with dissipation under a radial heat flow. The interior spacetime where the fluid is described is considered shear-free, which is the slowest possible collapse (as is shown by Raychaudhuri's (1957) equation). The exterior spacetime is given by Vaidya's (1953) metric, which represents the radial flow of unpolarized radiation.
