Small Scale Structure Formation in Chameleon Cosmology
Philippe Brax, Carsten van de Bruck, Anne-Christine Davis +1
Chameleon fields are scalar fields whose mass depends on the ambient matter density. We investigate the effects of these fields on the growth of density perturbations on sub-galact…
Boundary Inflation and the WMAP Data
Christophe Ringeval, Philippe Brax, Carsten van de Bruck +1
Inflation in a five-dimensional brane world model with two boundary branes is studied. We make use of the moduli space approximation whereby the low energy theory reduces to a four…
Cosmic Superstrings and Primordial Magnetogenesis
Anne-Christine Davis, Konstantinos Dimopoulos
Cosmic superstrings are produced at the end of brane inflation. Their properties are similar to cosmic strings arising in grand unified theories. Like cosmic strings they can give…
Fundamental cosmic strings
A. -C. Davis, T. W. B. Kibble
Cosmic strings are linear concentrations of energy that may be formed at phase transitions in the very early universe. At one time they were thought to provide a possible origin fo…
Brane World Cosmology, the CMB and the Radion
A. -C. Davis, Ph. Brax, C. van de Bruck
Recent developments in the theory of extra dimensions have opened up avenues to confront such theories with cosmological tests. We discuss a brane-world model with a bulk scalar fi…
Local Axion Cosmic Strings from Superstrings
Stephen C. Davis, Pierre Binetruy, Anne-Christine Davis
Axionic cosmic string solutions are investigated in a superstring motivated model with a pseudo-anomalous U(1) gauge symmetry. The inclusion of a gauge field and spatially varying…
