Radiating star with a time-dependent Karmarkar condition

Abstract In this paper we employ the Karmarkar condition (Proc Indian Acad Sci A 27:56, 1948) to model a spherically symmetric radiating star undergoing dissipative gravitational collapse in the form of a radial heat flux. A particular solution of the boundary condition renders the Karmarkar conditi...
