The river model of gravitational collapse

Abstract We show that the transformation of a time-evolving spherically symmetric metric tensor into a Painlevé–Gullstrand–Lemaître form brings forth a few curious consequences. The time evolution describes a non-singular gravitational collapse, leading to a bounce and dispersal of all the clustered...
