Collapsing dust thin shells in Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity

Abstract We investigate gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric thin shell in the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet (EGB) gravity. Under the recently proposed 4D limit, we find that the collapsing shell will be bounced back at a small radius, without forming a singularity. This bouncing behavior is si...
