Abstract:
We investigate the apparent horizon formation for high-energy head-on
collisions of particles in multi-dimensional spacetime. The apparent
horizons formed before the instant of particle collision are obtained
analytically. Using these solutions, we discuss the feature of the apparent
horizon formation in the multi-dimensional spacetime from the
viewpoint of the hoop conjecture.
