Abstract
- In this paper, we explore the gravitational collapse of matter (dust) under the effect of zero-point length l0. During the gravitational collapse, we neglect the backreaction effect of pre-Hawking radiation (in the sense that it is a small effect and cannot prevent the formation of an apparent horizon), then we recast the internal metric of a collapsing star as a closed FRW universe for any spherically symmetric case and, finally, we obtain the minimal value for the scale factor, meaning that the particles never hit the singularity. We argue that the object emerging at the end of the gravitational collapse can be interpreted as Planck stars (black hole core) hidden inside the event horizon of the black hole, with a radius proportional to (GMl02/c2)1/3. Quite interestingly, we found the same result for the radius of the Planck star using a free-falling observer point of view. In addition, we point out a correspondence between the modified Friedmann’s equations in loop quantum gravity and the modified Friedmann’s equation in string T-duality. In the end, we discuss two possibilities regarding the final stage of the black hole. The first possibility is that we end up with Planck-size black hole remnants. The second possibility is that the inner core can be unstable and, due to the quantum tunneling effect, the spacetime can undergo a black-hole-to-white-hole transition (a bouncing Planck star).
