Talk:Gravitational collapse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The talk of black hole singularities states as if it is a fact, which is not the case. Although the idea of black holes are main stream, it is far from agreed upon. Another theory is what scientists call gravastars. There were more then a few articles in NewScientist if someone wants to add it, I will look it up myself if no one wants to do it. --ShaunMacPherson 15:24, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)
[edit] gas clouds?
I came here looking for thermodynamic equilibrium of a gas cloud in zero gravity. This is talking about falling into a black hole. Stellar dynamics of core collapse might be relevant, but this is weird.
Yeah. Stellar evolution refers to gravitational collapse for clouds to hydrostatic equilibrium, and core collapse for dying stars. Potatoswatter 21:01, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] So basically,
this is an implosion on a huge scale? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.81.109.173 (talk) 01:56, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
- Any implosion due to gravity. Everything in astrophysics is on a huge scale :v) . This article is misleading though, making it sound like a catastrophic event when that's not necessarily the case. Potatoswatter (talk) 18:51, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
