Shear-free inhomogeneous energy density in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet spherical systems

We explore the inhomogeneity factors for the initially regular relativistic spheres in 4D-Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) theory. The corresponding equations of motion are derived once the generic expressions for the kinematical variables are obtained for spherically symmetric self-gravitating system. By using the non-zero divergence of the stress-energy tensor, the independent components of Bianchi identities are constructed. To enable a thorough explanation of the inhomogeneity of the particular shear free matter distribution, we computed two distinct components of evolution equations employing the Weyl tensor. We then investigate the requisite variables for the irregularity by looking at particular scenarios in both the adiabatic and non-adiabatic domains. These instances demonstrate how, in addition to other factors, the Gauss-Bonnet terms contribute to the regularity requirements of the collapsing fluid.
