On naked singularities in higher dimensional Vaidya space - times
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the end state of gravitational collapse of null fluid in higher dimensional space-times. Both naked singularities and black holes are shown to be developing as final outcome of the collapse. The naked singularity spectrum in collapsing Vaidya region (4D) gets covered with increase in dimensions and hence higher dimensions favor black hole in comparison to naked singularity. The Cosmic Censorship Conjecture will be fully respected for a space of infinite dimension. PACS number(s): 04.20.Dw, 04.20.Cv, 04.70.Bw

We investigate the end state of gravitational collapse of null fluid in higher dimensional space-times. Both naked singularities and black holes are shown to be developing as final outcome of the collapse. The naked singularity spectrum in collapsing Vaidya region (4D) gets covered continuously with introduction of extra dimensions. PACS number(s): 04.20.Dw, 04.20.Cv, 04.70.Bw
متن کاملGravitational collapse of Type II fluid in higher dimensional space-times
We find the general solution of the Einstein equation for spherically symmetric collapse of Type II fluid (null strange quark fluid) in higher dimensions. It turns out that the nakedness and curvature strength of the shell focusing singularities carry over to higher dimensions. However, there is shrinkage of the initial data space for a naked singularity of the Vaidya collapse due to the presen...
متن کاملHigher dimensional inhomogeneous dust collapse and cosmic censorship
We investigate the occurrence and nature of a naked singularity in the gravitational collapse of an inhomogeneous dust cloud described by higher dimensional Tolman-Bondi space-times. The naked singularities are found to be gravitationally strong in the sense of Tipler. Higher dimensions seem to favour black holes rather than naked singularities.
متن کاملQuasi-Spherical Gravitational Collapse in Any Dimension
We study the occurrence and nature of naked singularities for a dust model with non-zero cosmological constant in (n + 2)-dimensional Szekeres space-times (which possess no Killing vectors) for n ≥ 2. We find that central shell-focusing singularities may be locally naked in higher dimensions but depend sensitively on the choice of initial data. In fact, the nature of the initial density determi...
متن کاملNaked Singularities in Higher Dimensional Gravitational Collapse
Spherically symmetric inhomogeneous dust collapse has been studied in higher dimensional spacetime and the factors responsible for the appearance of a naked singularity are analyzed in the region close to the centre for the marginally bound case. It is clearly demonstrated that in the former case naked singularities do not appear in the space-time having more than five dimension, which appears ...
