Abstract
We prove that the critical Wave Maps equation with target and origin admits energy class blow up solutions of the form where is the ground state harmonic map and for any . This extends the work [13], where such solutions were constructed under the assumption . In light of a result of Struwe [22], our result is optimal for polynomial blow up rates.
