Dynamical surface gravity in spherically symmetric black hole formation
Dynamical surface gravity in spherically symmetric black hole formation
We study dynamical surface gravity in a general spherically symmetric setting using Painlev\'{e}-Gullstrand (PG) coordinates. Our analysis includes several definitions that have been proposed in the past as well as two new definitions adapted to PG coordinates. Various properties are considered, including general covariance, value at extremality, locality and static …
