Dissipative collapse of a Karmarkar star

    In this paper, we employ the Karmarkar condition to model a spherically symmetric radiating star undergoing dissipative gravitational collapse within the framework of classical general relativity. The collapse ensues from an initial static core satisfying the Karmarkar condition in isotropic coordinates and proceeds nonadiabatically by emitting energy in the form of a radial heat flux to the exterior Vaidya spacetime. We show that the dynamical nature of the collapse is sensitive to the initial static configuration that inherently links the embedding to the final remnant. Our model considered several physical tests on how an initially static stellar structure onset to a radiative collapse.
