We identify the effective theory appropriate to the propagation of massless bulk fields in brane-world scenarios, to show that the dominant low-energy effect of asymmetric warping in the bulk is to modify the dispersion relation of the…
The prospect of large extra dimensions and an effective theory of gravity at around a TeV has interesting experimental consequences. In these models, the Kaluza-Klein modes interact with Standard Model particles and these interactions lead…
We set up a vacuum theory of gravity with an extra dimension of vanishing proper length. The most general solution to the field equations are presented. This formulation is free of Kaluza-Klein modes and does not allow the propagation of…
