Static spherically symmetric space-time: Some remarks

Within the scope of a spherically symmetric space-time we study the role of different types of matter in the formation of different configurations with spherical symmetries. Here we have considered matter with barotropic equation of state, scalar field, electromagnetic field and an interacting system of scalar and electromagnetic field as the source. Corresponding field equations are solved exploiting harmonic coordinates. An easy to handle method is proposed which allows one to have an idea about the possible behavior of the metric functions once the components of the EMT of the source field is known. © 2021, Editura Academiei Romane.
