Higher Dimensional Inhomogeneous Perfect Fluid Collapse in \emph{f(R)} Gravity
This paper is about the -dimensional gravitational contraction of
inhomogeneous fluid without heat flux in the framework of metric theory
of gravity. Matching conditions for two regions of a star has been derived by
using the Darmois junction conditions. For the analytic solution of equations
of motion in modified theory of gravity, we have taken scalar curvature
as constant. Hence final result of gravitational collapse in this frame work is
the existence of black hole and cosmological horizons, both of these form
earlier than singularity. It has been shown that constant curvature term
( is constant scalar curvature) slows down the collapsing
process.Comment: 17 Pages, to appear in European Physical Journal
