This work presents a semi-classical, quantum-corrected model of gravitational collapse for a charged, spherically symmetric dust cloud, extending the classical Oppenheimer–Snyder (OS) framework through loop quantum gravity effects. Our goal is to study phenomenological quantum modifications to geometry, without necessarily embedding them within full loop quantum gravity (LQG). Building upon the quantum Oppenheimer–Snyder (qOS) model, which replaces the classical singularity with a nonsingular bounce via a modified Friedmann equation, we introduce electric and magnetic charges concentrated on a massive thin shell at the boundary of the dust ball. The resulting exterior spacetime generalizes the Schwarzschild solution to a charged, regular black hole geometry akin to a quantum-corrected Reissner–Nordström metric. The Israel junction conditions are applied to match the interior APS (Ashtekar–Pawlowski–Singh) cosmological solution to the charged exterior, yielding constraints on the shell’s mass, pressure, and energy. Stability conditions are derived, including a minimum radius preventing full collapse and ensuring positivity of energy density. This study also examines the geodesic structure around the black hole, focusing on null circular orbits and effective potentials, with implications for the observational signatures of such quantum-corrected compact objects.
