Title:Black Stars and Gamma Ray Bursts
View PDFAbstract:Stars that are collapsing toward forming a black hole but are frozen near the Schwarzschild horizon are termed "black stars". Collisions of black stars, in contrast to black hole collisions, may be sources of gamma ray bursts, whose basic parameters are estimated quite simply and are found to be consistent with observed gamma ray bursts. Black star gamma ray bursts should be preceded by gravitational wave emission similar to that from the coalescence of black holes.
