We include only gravitational interaction between the two shells, but we show that the dynamics of this system is highly nontrivial. We observe prompt collapse to a black hole, delayed collapse and even perpetual oscillatory motion, depending on the initial location of the shells (or their energy content). The system exhibits critical behavior, and we show strong hints that it is also chaotic.8 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2016Mecànica celestePartícules (Matèria)Col·lapse gravitacionalForats negres (Astronomia)Celestial mechanicsParticlesGravitational collapseBlack holes (Astronomy)Interacting shells in AdS spacetime and chaosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6701872017-07-14info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
