Simulated gravity without true gravity in asymmetric brane-world scenarios

Abstract

This article investigates asymmetric brane-world scenarios in the limit when the bulk gravity is negligible. We show that, even when true self gravity is negligible, local mass concentrations will be subject to a mutual attraction force which simulates the effect of Newtonian gravity in the non-relativistic limit. Cosmological and also post-Newtonian constraints are examined.
