Classical Tests of General Relativity: Brane-World Sun from Minimal Geometric Deformation

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-06-01 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We consider a solution of the effective four-dimensional brane-world equations, obtained from the General Relativistic Schwarzschild metric via the principle of Minimal Geometric Deformation, and investigate the corresponding signatures stemming from the possible existence of a warped extra dimension. In particular, we derive bounds on an extra-dimensional parameter, closely related with the fundamental gravitational length, from the experimental results of the classical tests of General Relativity in the Solar system.
