Formation of a Black String in a Higher Dimensional Vacuum Gravitational Collapse
arXiv:gr-qc/0606054 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2008.03.063
Abstract
We present a solution to the vacuum Einstein Equations which represents a collapse of a gravitational wave in 5 dimensions. Depending on the focal length of the wave, the collapse results, either in a black string covered by a horizon, or in a naked singularity which can be removed.
