Black Spaghetti: A Numerical Model of Gravitational Collapse in 4 + 1 Spacetime

We investigate spherically-symmetric gravitational collapse in the presence of a single "large" extra dimension through the use of analytical and numerical techniques. This has bearing on higher-dimensional ideas concerning hypothetical objects called "black strings," or black...
