Inequality between size and angular momentum for bodies
A universal inequality that bounds the angular momentum of a body by the square of its size is presented and heuristic physical arguments are given to support it. We prove a version of this inequality, as consequence of the Einstein equations, for the case of rotating axially symmetric, constant d...

| Sumario: | A universal inequality that bounds the angular momentum of a body by the square of its size is presented
and heuristic physical arguments are given to support it. We prove a version of this inequality, as
consequence of the Einstein equations, for the case of rotating axially symmetric, constant density, bodies.
Finally, the physical relevance of this result is discussed. |
