Cosmological Phase Transitions in a Brane World
Stephen C. Davis, Warren B. Perkins, Anne-Christine Davis +1
In brane world scenarios the Friedmann equation is modified, resulting in an increased expansion at early times. This has important effects on cosmological phase transitions which…
Brane World Cosmology Without the Z_2 Symmetry
Anne-Christine Davis, Ian Vernon, Stephen C. Davis +1
The Friedmann equation for a positive tension brane situated between two bulk spacetimes that posses the same 5D cosmological constant, but which does not posses a Z_2 symmetry of…
The Fate of Cosmic String Zero Modes
Anne-Christine Davis, Stephen C. Davis, Warren B. Perkins
Cosmic strings in realistic particle physics models have fermion zero modes in the string core. Such zero modes change the underlying cosmology; for example, the string can carry a…
