Reply to comment by fore4runner in Would heavy unstable elements at the core of a star have a significantly extended half-life due to gravity? by SpectralMagic

Force can be applied in many directions such that the net is zero. The force is still being applied though. Time only changes in one direction (slows down) and can't be cancelled by other directions.

It could maybe be sped back up with a very dense clump of anti-matter? Can a general relativitist chime in here?

I don’t think your right, isn’t the time dilation due to the curve of space time? So in the centre of a body of mass, space time is flat

Isn't anti matter just opposite of matter in terms of charge? I don't think anti matter has negative mass if that's what you are thinking of.
