A note on the collision of Reissner-Nordström gravitational shock waves in AdS


Abstract:

We study the collision of two Reissner-Nordström gravitational shock waves in AdS and show that the charge completely prevents the formation of marginally trapped surfaces of the Penrose type with topology S D-2, independently of the energy and the value of the impact parameter. In the case of head-on collisions, a numerical analysis shows that no trapped surfaces with topology S 1×S D-3 form either. © 2012 Elsevier B.V..
