In the context of string theory we argue that higher dimensional Dp-branes unwind and evaporate so that we are left with D3-branes embedded in a (9+1)-dimensional bulk. One of thes…

CMB anisotropies from vector perturbations in the bulk
Christophe Ringeval, Timon Boehm, Ruth Durrer
The vector perturbations induced on the brane by gravitational waves propagating in the bulk are studied in a cosmological framework. Cosmic expansion arises from the brane motion…
