The $2$-form Kalb-Ramond (KR) field, together with the metric tensor and dilaton, arises as one of the massless excitation mode of a closed string. Subsequently, this field plays an important role in both string theory and field theory. In…
In this paper we investigate the localization and mass spectra of matter fields with spin 0, 1 and 1/2 on a geometric thick brane generated by pure 4D and 5D positive cosmological constants without bulk scalar fields. This model possesses a…
In the article, we investigate localization problem for spinor fields within the 6D standing wave braneworld with the bulk real scalar field, introduced earlier in [30], and explicitly show that there is no normalizable fermion field zero…
An asymmetric thick domain wall solution with de Sitter ($dS$) expansion in five dimensions can be constructed from a symmetric one by using a same scalar (kink) with different potentials. In this paper, by presenting the mass-independent…
This work deals with new results on the Kalb-Ramond (KR) field localization in braneworld models. We consider a five-dimensional warped spacetime with an embedded 4D thick brane which is generated by two real scalar fields coupled with…
We construct a deformed brane solution generated by a double-kink scalar field and a dilaton scalar field. In this brane scenario the extra dimension is finite, which is due to the introduction of the dilaton field with special form. The…
We show that the hierarchy between the Planck and the weak scales can follow from the tendency of gravitons and fermions to localize at different edges of a thick double wall embedded in an $AdS_5$ spacetime without reflection symmetry.…
In the paradigm with a small warped Spacelike Extra Dimensions (SED), the Higgs field is in general localized at a boundary of the SED (TeV-brane) where the gravity scale is redshifted to the TeV by a warp factor. If the SM gauge bosons and…
A toy model where a massless, real, scalar field $\Phi$ in a compact space-time ${\cal M}_4 \times {\cal S}_1$ is coupled to a brane (parametrized as a $\delta$-function) through the unique relevant operator $\delta (y) \Phi^2 (x,y)$ is…
A few years ago, Campos investigated the critical phenomena of thick branes in warped spacetimes [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 88} (2002) 141602]. Inspired by his work, we consider a toy model of thick branes generated by a real scalar field with…
The role of a bulk graviton in predicting the signature of extra dimensions through collider-based experiments is explored in the context of a multiply warped spacetime. In particular it is shown that in a doubly warped braneworld model,…
Discrete symmetries are studied in warped space-times with one extra dimension. In particular, we analyze the compatibility of five- and four-dimensional charge conjugation, parity, time reversal and the orbifold symmetry Z_2 with…
It is known that the scalar fields can be trapped on branes of different types, and the $U(1)$ gauge vector fields can be localized on the thick de Sitter brane, or the thick Minkowski brane via coupling with gravity. The Kalb-Ramond fields…
We study the behaviour of fermions localized on moving kinks as these collide with either antikinks or spacetime boundaries. We numerically solve for the evolution of the scalar kinks and the bound (i.e. localized) fermion modes, and…
In a recent paper published in this journal, Almeida and collaborators [Phys. Rev. D \textbf{79}, 125022 (2009)] analyze the issue of fermion localization of fermions on a brane constructed from two scalar fields coupled with gravity (Bloch…
We consider the six dimensional brane world model, where the brane is described by a localized solution to the baby-Skyrme model extending in the extradimensions. The branes have a cosmological constant modeled by inflating four dimensional…
We construct an explicit model to describe fermions confined on a four dimensional brane embedded in a five dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime. We extend previous works to accommodate massive bound states on the brane and exhibit the…
In braneworld collisions fermions originally localised on one brane can be transferred to another brane, or to a space-time boundary. By modelling branes as scalar field kinks we bounce them off boundaries and study resulting effects…
In this work we study localization of a Kalb-Ramond tensorial gauge field on a membrane described by real scalar fields. The membrane is embedded in an AdS-type five dimensional bulk space, which mimic a Randall-Sundrum scenario. First, we…
We study the localization of various bulk fields on an $AdS_4$ brane in $AdS_5$. In this case, for a small brane cosmological constant, all the bulk fields ranging from scalar to graviton are naturally confined to the brane only through the…
