    Gravitational collapse of perfect fluid in self-similar higher dimensional space-times
    (2011-07-05) Ghosh, S. G.; Deshkar, D. W.
    We investigate the occurrence and nature of naked singularities in the gravitational collapse of an adiabatic perfect fluid in self-similar higher dimensional space-times. It is shown that strong curvature naked singularities could occur if the weak energy condition holds. Its implication for cosmic censorship conjecture is discussed. Known results of analogous studies in four dimensions can be recovered.
