Under certain general physical assumptions for the collapsing cloud, we find the class of dynamical models that lead to an equilib-rium configuration. To illustrate this, we provide a class of perfect fluid collapse models that lead to a static constant density object as limit. We suggest that similar models might possibly constitutethe basis for the description of formation of compact objects in nature.enResearch Subject Categories::NATURAL SCIENCES::Physicsgravitational collapseblack holescompact objectsArticle
