Bulk Gauge Fields in the Bigravity Model

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Motivated by a recently proposed "bigravity" model with two positive tension AdS4AdS_4 branes in AdS5AdS_5 by Kogan et al.[hep-th/0011141], we study behavior of bulk gauge field in the model. In this case, the zero mode of the gauge field is not constant but depends on the fifth dimensional coordinate transverse to the brane. The zero mode then becomes massive on the brane. From the physical requirement that the mass must be small, a parameter of the model is constrained. We also discuss the Kaluza-Klein modes.
