Title:Gravitational Dust Collapse in $f(R)$ Gravity
View PDFAbstract:This paper is devoted to investigate gravitational collapse of dust in metric $f(R)$ gravity. We take FRW metric for the interior region while the Schwarzchild spacetime is considered for the exterior region of a star. The junction conditions have been derived to match interior and exterior spacetimes. The assumption of constant scalar curvature is used to find a solution of field equations. Gravitational mass is found by using the junction conditions. It is concluded that the constant curvature term $f(R_0)$ plays the role of the cosmological constant involved in the field equations of general relativity.
