ON INTERIOR SOLUTION IN GENERAL RELATIVITY

Abstract

Since the inception of general relativity and Einstein's field equations, research workers have been busy to solve the later for various physical situations such as fluid distributions, electromagnetic field etc. Due to highly non-linear nature of the Einstein's equations, the solutions could not be obtained exhaustively in any area. The numerical techniques have been found unreliable. However exact solutions have played an important role in the study of various physical phenomena and may help in checking the validity of approximate numerical and perturbation techniques by comparing the exact solutions with the approximate results. The present thesis entitled " On Interior Solution In General Relativity " deals with the spherical and plane symmetric exact interior solutions of the Einstein's field equations, taking perfect fluid and radiation as Ulterior material. The work has been compiled in form of six chapters. The chapter I is of introductory type, which starts, with the brief introduction of general relativity and describing four- fold structure. The remaining part of the chapter contains brief ideas about various concepts likely to be used in forthcoming chapters.......
