The Impact of the Eccentricity on the Collapse of an Ellipsoid into a Black Hole

We consider the gravitational collapse of a homogeneous pressureless ellipsoid. We have shown that the minimal size <i>r</i> that the ellipsoid can reach during collapse depends on its initial eccentricity <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...

We have estimated the parameters (in particular, the initial eccentricity) of a homogeneous pressureless ellipsoid, whereat it collapses directly into a black hole. Our consideration is purely Newtonian, but we present a discussion suggesting that the results obtained within the framework of general relativity are unlikely to be significantly different.
