Mirage cosmology with an unstable probe D3-brane
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the mirage cosmology by an unstable probe brane whose action is represented by BDI action with tachyon. We study how the presence of tachyon affects the evolution of the brane inflation. At the early stage of the brane inflation, the tachyon kinetic term can play an important role in curing the superluminal expansion in mirage cosmology.

Cycling in the Throat
We analyse the dynamics of a probe D3-(anti-)brane propagating in a warped string compactification, making use of the Dirac-Born-Infeld action approximation. We also examine the time dependent expansion of such moving branes from the “mirage cosmology” perspective, where cosmology is induced by the brane motion in the background spacetime. A range of physically interesting backgrounds are consi...
متن کاملBrane Inflation from Mirage Cosmology
We study the cosmological evolution of a D3-brane universe in a type 0 string background. We follow the brane-universe along the radial coordinate of the background and we calculate the energy density which is induced on the brane because of its motion in the bulk. We find that for some typical values of the parameters the brane-universe has an inflationary phase.
متن کاملCosmological Perturbations on a Bouncing Brane
Abstract The cosmological perturbations on a bouncing brane are studied. The brane is moving inside a Klebanov-Strassler throat where the infra-red region of the geometry is smoothly cut off. For an observer confined to the world-volume of the brane, this results in a non-singular bouncing mirage cosmology. We have calculated the scalar perturbations corresponding to the normal displacements of...
متن کاملClosed Universe in Mirage Cosmology
We study the cosmological evolution of the closed universe on a spherical probe brane moving in the AdSm × S background and the near-horizon background of the dilatonic D-branes. The Friedmann equations describing the evolution of the brane universe, and the effective energy density and pressure simulated on the probe brane due to its motion in the curved background spacetime are obtained and a...
متن کاملBrane Cosmology, Varying Speed of Light and Inflation in Models with One or More Extra Dimensions *
We summarise the approach to brane cosmology known as " mirage cosmology " and use it to determine the Friedmann equation on a 3-brane embedded in different bulk spacetimes all with one or more extra dimensions. Usually, when there is more than one extra dimension the junction conditions, central to the usual brane world scenarios, are difficult to apply. This problem does not arise in mirage c...
