Abstract: | Spherically symmetric inhomogeneous dust collapse has been studied in higher dimensional space-time and the appearance of a naked singularity has been analyzed both for the non-marginal and the marginally bound cases. It has been shown that a naked singularity is possible for any arbitrary dimension in the non-marginally bound case. For the marginally bound case we have examined the radial null geodesics from the singularity and found that a naked singularity is possible up to five dimensions. |
