Abstract

Mazur and Mottola's gravastar model represents one of the few serious alternatives to the traditional understanding of the black hole. The gravastar is typically regarded as a theoretical alternative for the black hole. This article investiagtes the creation of gravastar(gravitational vacuum star) within the realm of cylindrically symmetric space-time utilizing the Kuchowicz metric potential. A stable gravastar comprises of three distinct regions, starting with an interior region marked by positive energy density and negative pressure $(p=-\rho)$ which is followed by an intermediate thin shell, where the interior negative pressure induces a outward repulsive force at each point on the shell. Ultra-relativistic stiff fluid makes up the thin shell governed by the equation of state(EoS) $(p=\rho)$, which meets the Zel'dovich criteria. And then comes the region exterior to it which is total vacuum. In this scenario, the central singularity is eliminated and the event horizon is effectively substituted by the thin bounding shell. Employing the Kuchowicz metric potential we have derived the remaining metric functions for the interior region and the shell regions yielding a non-singular solution for both the regions. Additionally, we have investigated various characteristics of this shell region including its proper shell length, the energy content and entropy. This theoretical model successfully resolves the singularity issue inherent to the black holes. Therefore, this gravastar model presents a viable alternative to the traditional black holes, reconciled within the context of Einstein's theory of General Relativity.
