Interior of Nonuniform Black Strings — •Burkhard Kleihaus and Jutta Kunz — Universität Oldenburg

In higher dimensional space-times with compact dimensions, caged black holes are localized in the compact dimensions, whereas the black strings wrap the compact dimensions completely. A topology changing transition between caged black holes and non-uniform black strings is expected. We consider nonuniform black strings inside their event horizon. We present numerical evidence, that the singularity touches the horizon as the horizon topology changing transition is reached.
