Recently the possibility has been raised of using general relativistic star clusters as models for quasi-stellar sources. The theory of static, spherically symmetric, collisionless star clusters has been developed within the framework of general relativity. In particular, analogues have been found of the Newtonian polytropic models and of Woolley’s truncated Maxwellian systems. However, in view of the importance of rotation on stability in relativistic astrophysical problems, it is of considerable interest to include the effect of rotation in relativistic stellar dynamics.

We resolve a metric singularity at large [Formula: see text] that is due to the introduction of the cosmological constant [Formula: see text] in simple static spherically symmetric systems in classical general relativity for a mass bounded within a radius [Formula: see text]. For the metric to be nonsingular, we find that ordinary matter must exist beyond [Formula: see text], and that mass densities and [Formula: see text] must have spatial ranges. These features can be developed covariantly and can ameliorate discrepancies between theoretical values of [Formula: see text] and those derived from astronomical observations. Requiring a nonsingular metric in classical general relativistic modeling of this and other physical systems has the potential to offer suggestive insights into cosmological parameters.

In this letter we present a general relativistic star with strange matter to explain in a young supernova remnant the radial millisecond oscillations. The results confirm previous conclusions.

We introduce a new set of equations to describe the equilibrium of the core of neutron stars, composed by self-gravitating degenerate neutrons, protons and electrons in β-equilibrium. We take into account strong, weak, electromagnetic and gravitational interactions within the framework of general relativity. We extend the conditions of equilibrium based on the constancy of the Klein potentials to the strongly interactive case. The strong interactions between nucleons are modeled through the exchange of the σ, ω and ρ virtual mesons. The equations are solved numerically in the case of zero temperatures and for a non-rotating spherically symmetric neutron stars in the mean-field approximation.

There is a new theory gravity called the dynamic theory, which is derived from thermodynamic principles in a five dimensional space, radar signals traveling times and delays are calculated for the major planets in the solar system, and compared to those of general relativity. This is done by using the usual four dimensional spherically symmetric space-time element of classical general relativistic gravity which has now been slightly modified by a negative inverse radial exponential term due to the dynamic theory of gravity potential.

The analytic aspects of the Campbell-Hénon method of concentric spherical shells are generalized for application to relativistic spherically symmetric star clusters.
