Evolution of pressure-free collapse with Hawking radiation. For easy of plotting, the luminosities are scaled by a factor of 1000. The thin dashed lines in the upper panel represent the respective quantities in a pure Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse of the same initial conditions. (Credit: Mersini-Houghton, Pfeier)
