Gravity in a stabilized brane world model in five-dimensional Brans-Dicke theory
Linearized equations of motion for gravitational and scalar fields are found
and solved in a stabilized brane world model in five-dimensional Brans-Dicke
theory. The physical degrees of freedom are isolated, the mass spectrum of
Kaluza-Klein excitations is found and the coupling constants of these
excitations to matter on the negative tension brane are calculated.Comment: 12 pages, LaTe
Intermediate inflation in Gauss-Bonnet braneworld
In this article we study an intermediate inflationary universe models using
the Gauss-Bonnet brane. General conditions required for these models to be
realizable are derived and discussed. We use recent astronomical observations
to constraint the parameters appearing in the model.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figures, accepted for publication in European Physical
