Mirage Cosmology on Unstable D3-Brane Universe
arXiv:hep-th/0609169 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/53/1/048
Abstract
We study the geodesic motion of an unstable brane moving in a higher dimensional bulk spacetime. The tachyon which is coupled to a U(1) gauge field induces a non-trivial cosmological evolution. Interestingly enough, this system exhibits a much smoother initial cosmological singularity in comparison with former works.
