Title: Violations of weak cosmic censorship in black hole collisions
Abstract: We simulate collisions of stable MP black holes in six and seven dimensions.
We find that if the angular momentum of the system is sufficiently large, the
post-merger configuration is an elongated dumbbell which is Gregory-Laflamme
unstable. As such, it displays a cascade of satellite formation which ultimately
leads to pinching off of the horizon, thus violating the weak cosmic censorship conjecture.
