Brane-world models emerging from collisions of plane waves in 5D
J. Ponce de Leon
We consider brane-world models embedded in a five-dimensional bulk spacetime with a large extra dimension and a cosmological constant. The cosmology in possesses "wave-like" c…
Invariant definition of rest mass and dynamics of particles in 4D from bulk geodesics in brane-world and non-compact Kaluza-Klein theories
J. Ponce de Leon
In the Randall-Sundrum brane-world scenario and other non-compact Kaluza-Klein theories, the motion of test particles is higher-dimensional in nature. In other words, all test part…
Hydrostatic Equilibrium of a Perfect Fluid Sphere with Exterior Higher-Dimensional Schwarzschild Spacetime
J. Ponce de Leon, Norman Cruz
We discuss the question of how the number of dimensions of space and time can influence the equilibrium configurations of stars. We find that dimensionality does increase the effec…
Mass and Charge in Brane-World and Non-Compact Kaluza-Klein Theories in 5 Dim
J. Ponce de Leon
In classical Kaluza-Klein theory, with compactified extra dimensions and without scalar field, the rest mass as well as the electric charge of test particles are constants of motio…
Variation of G, and Vacuum Energy From Brane-World Models
J. Ponce de Leon
In brane-world theory in five dimensions, the bulk metric is usually written in gaussian coordinates, where and . However, the choice is a…
