Abstract

The center-of-mass energy can be arbitrarily high in Schwarzschild spacetime if one considers the front collision of two particles, one of which moves along so-called white hole geodesics and another one along a black hole geodesic. This process can take place if one considers the gravitational collapse model. In this paper, we consider the well-known naked singularity formation in Vaidya spacetime and investigate the question about two particle collision near the boundary of the collapsing cloud. The center-of-mass energy of the front collision is considered. One particle moves away from the naked singularity and another one falls onto a collapsing cloud. We show that the center-of-mass energy grows unboundly if the collision takes place in the vicinity of the conformal Killing horizon.
