Wave function of the radion in the brane background with a massless scalar field

چکیده
We consider flat solutions in the brane background with a massless scalar field appearing in 5D H2 MNPQ. Since there exist bulk singularities or arises the divergent 4D Planck mass, we should introduce a compact extra dimension, the size of which is then fixed by brane tension(s) and a bulk cosmological constant. Inspecting scalar perturbations around the flat solutions, we find that the flat solutions are stable vacua from the positive mass spectrum of radion. We show that the massless radion mode is projected out by the boundary condition arising in cutting off the extra dimension. Thus, the fixed extra dimension is not alterable, which is not useful toward a self-tuning [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

Wave function of the radion in the brane background with a massless scalar field and a self-tuning problem

متن کاملWill Ligo See Rigo’s? — Radion-induced Graviton Oscillations in the Two-brane World
One of the most interesting features of braneworld models is the existence of massive gravitational modes in addition to the usual massless one. Mixing of the modes which depends nontrivially on the inter-brane distance can be interpreted as radion-induced gravitational-wave oscillations, a classical analogy to meson and neutrino oscillations. We show that these oscillations arising in M-theory...
متن کاملCosmology with Radion and Bulk Scalar Field in Two Branes Model
We investigate cosmological evolutions of the bulk scalar field φ(t) and the radion d(t) in five-dimensional dilatonic two branes model. The bulk potential for the scalar field is taken as the exponential function Vbulk ∝ exp(−2 √ 2bφ), where b is the parameter of the theory. This model includes Randall-Sundrum model (with b = 0) and fivedimensional Hořava-Witten theory (with b = 1). We conside...
متن کاملExact identification of the radion and its coupling to the observable sector
Braneworld models in extra dimensions can be tested in laboratory by the coupling of the radion to the Standard Model fields. The identification of the radion as a canonically normalized field involves a careful General Relativity treatment: if a bulk scalar is responsible for the stabilization of the system, its fluctuations are entangled with the perturbations of the metric and they also have...
متن کاملThe massive Elko spinor field in the de Sitter braneworld model
The Elko spinor field is a spin 1/2 fermionic quantum field with a mass dimension introduced as a candidate of dark matter. In this work, we study the localization of Elko fields on a de Sitter thick brane constructed by a canonical or phantom scalar field. By presenting the mass-independent potentials of Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes in the corresponding Schrödinger equations, it is shown that the E...
