Abstract
We perform numerical simulations of the critical gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric scalar field in 6 dimensions. The critical solution has discrete self-similarity. We find the critical exponent \gamma and the self-similarity period \Delta.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures RevTeKeywords
