At the boundary of an Oppenheimer-Snyder cloud, its areal radius is R=asinχ0​. Matching to a Schwarzschild metric gives M=4πρR3/3=amax​sin3χ0​/2. Thus sin2χ0​=2M/R0​ and amax​=R03​/(2M)​. The boundary is a radial timelike geodesic with specific Killing energy 1−2M/R0​​=cosχ0​. Its radial equation is R˙2=2M/R−2M/R0​. The induced metric and the angular extrinsic curvature agree on both sides, so no surface layer is required.
