Brane gas cosmology in M-theory: late time behavior
Richard Easther, Brian R. Greene, Mark G. Jackson +1
We investigate the late-time behavior of a universe containing a supergravity gas and wrapped 2-branes in the context of M-theory compactified on T^10. The supergravity gas tends t…
A Quantum Mechanical Model of Spherical Supermembranes
John Conley, Ben Geller, Mark G. Jackson +2
We present a quantum mechanical model of spherical supermembranes. Using superfields to represent the cartesian coordinates of the membrane, we are able to exactly determine its su…
Cosmological String Gas on Orbifolds
Richard Easther, Brian R. Greene, Mark G. Jackson
It has long been known that strings wound around incontractible cycles can play a vital role in cosmology. In particular, in a spacetime with toroidal spatial hypersurfaces, the dy…
