contents We investigate the second volume moment of the zero cell $Z_o$ of a Poisson hyperplane tessellation with intensity $γ$ in the $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space. We focus on the phase transition at the critical intensity $γ_c^{(d)}$, the minimum value for which $Z_o$ is almost surely bounded. In the critical regime $γ=γ_c^{(d)}$, we show that the second volume moment of the restricted zero cell $Z_o \cap B_R$, where $B_R$ is a hyperbolic ball of radius $R$ centred at $o$, diverges in any dimension at the universal rate $R^3$ as $R \to \infty$. In the supercritical case $γ> γ_c^{(d)}$, we prove that the full second volume moment is finite. Using tools from harmonic analysis in hyperbolic space, we derive an exact expression for this moment in terms of the Meijer $G$-function. Furthermore, we determine the asymptotic behaviour of the second moment as $γ\to \infty$ and as $γ\downarrow γ_c^{(d)}$, facilitating a direct comparison with the corresponding Euclidean values as well as the mean-field universality class of percolation theory.
