PRAMANA - Journal of Physics. 86(1): 49-58.0304-4289 (print)0973-7111 (online)https://hdl.handle.net/10321/2950The Kramer radiating star uses the interior Schwarzschild solution as a seed solution to generate a model of dissipative collapse. We investigate the thermal behaviour of the radiating star by employing a causal heat transport equation. The causal temperature is explicitly determined for the first time by integrating the transport equation. We further show that the dissipation of energy to the exterior space-time renders the core more unstable than the cooler surface layers.10 penSchwarzschild solutionGravitational collapseHeat flowThermal evolution of the Kramer radiating starArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1007/s12043-015-0967-y
