Traversable double-throat wormholes in a string cloud background
Yvens Amaral, M. S. Cunha, C. R. Muniz +1
This work constructs a new class of traversable wormhole solutions with a double-throat topology, modeled as a localized perturbation of the Ellis-Bronnikov metric in a string clou…
Particle and Superparticle Confinement in Higher Codimension Braneworlds
F. E. A. de Souza, M. O. Tahim, R. I. de Oliveira Júnior +1
In this work we analyze the classical confinement of relativistic and supersymmetric spinning particles in higher-codimension braneworlds. Considering warped backgrounds generated…
A Satellite Superparticle in Extra Dimensions
F. E. A. de Souza, M. O. Tahim, R. I. O. Junior +1
In this work we discuss the issue of localization of spinning particles. More specifically, we show that we can not confine the spinning particle within the Randall-Sundrum s…
Coupled Oscillators, Frequency Transfer and the Higgs Mechanism's Teaching
M. O. Tahim, C. R. Muniz, M. S. Cunha +1
In this work, we propose a simple model to teach the Higgs mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in particle physics. The basic idea is associated with the analysis of two par…
