A Note on the Generalized Friedmann Equations for a Thick Brane
Within our thick brane approach previously used to obtain the cosmological
evolution equations on a thick brane embedded in a five-dimensional
Schwarzschild Anti-de Sitter spacetime it is explicitly shown that the
consistency of these equations with the energy conservation equation requires
that, in general, the thickness of the brane evolves in time. This varying
brane thickness entails the possibility that both Newton's gravitational
constant and the effective cosmological constant are time
dependent.Comment: 6 pages,To appear in GR
On The 5D Extra-Force according to Basini-Capozziello-Leon Formalism and five important features: Kar-Sinha Gravitational Bending of Light, Chung-Freese Superluminal Behaviour, Maartens-Clarkson Black Strings, Experimental measures of Extra Dimensions on board International Space Station(ISS) and the existence of the Particle due to a Higher Dimensional spacetime
We use the Conformal Metric as described in Kar-Sinha work on Gravitational
Bending of Light in a 5D Spacetime to recompute the equations of the 5D Force
in Basini-Capozziello-Leon Formalism and we arrive at a result that possesses
some advantages. The equations of the Extra Force as proposed by Leon are now
more elegant in Conformal Formalism and many algebraic terms can be simplified
or even suppressed. Also we recompute the Kar-Sinha Gravitational Bending of
Light affected by the presence of the Extra Dimension and analyze the
Superluminal Chung-Freese Features of this Formalism describing the advantages
of the Chung-Freese BraneWorld when compared to other Superluminal spacetime
metrics(eg:Warp Drive) and we describe why the Extra Dimension is invisible and
how the Extra Dimension could be made visible at least in theory.We also
examine the Maartens-Clarkson Black Holes in 5D(Black Strings) coupled to
massive Kaluza-Klein graviton modes predicted by Extra Dimensions theories and
we study experimental detection of Extra Dimensions on-board LIGO and LISA
Space Telescopes.We also propose the use of International Space Station(ISS) to
measure the additional terms(resulting from the presence of Extra Dimensions)
in the Kar-Sinha Gravitational Bending of Light in Outer Space to verify if we
really lives in a Higher Dimensional Spacetime.Also we demonstrate that
Particle can only exists if the 5D spacetime exists.Comment: Withdrawn: author no longer wishes to post work on arXi
A 5D non compact and non Ricci flat Kaluza-Klein Cosmology
A model universe is proposed in the framework of 5-dimensional noncompact
Kaluza-Klein cosmology which is not Ricci flat. The 4D part as the
Robertson-Walker metric is coupled to conventional perfect fluid, and its
extra-dimensional part is coupled to a dark pressure through a scalar field. It
is shown that neither early inflation nor current acceleration of the 4D
universe would happen if the non-vacuum states of the scalar field would
contribute to 4D cosmology.Comment: 13 pages, major revision, published online in GR
An Embedding for General Relativity and its Implications for New Physics
We show that any solution of the 4D Einstein equations of general relativity
in vacuum with a cosmological constant may be embedded in a solution of the 5D
Ricci-flat equations with an effective 4D cosmological "constant" that is a
specific function of the extra coordinate. For unified theories of the forces
in higher dimensions, this has major physical implications
Minimum mass-radius ratio for charged gravitational objects
We rigorously prove that for compact charged general relativistic objects
there is a lower bound for the mass-radius ratio. This result follows from the
same Buchdahl type inequality for charged objects, which has been extensively
used for the proof of the existence of an upper bound for the mass-radius
ratio. The effect of the vacuum energy (a cosmological constant) on the minimum
mass is also taken into account. Several bounds on the total charge, mass and
the vacuum energy for compact charged objects are obtained from the study of
the Ricci scalar invariants. The total energy (including the gravitational one)
and the stability of the objects with minimum mass-radius ratio is also
considered, leading to a representation of the mass and radius of the charged
objects with minimum mass-radius ratio in terms of the charge and vacuum energy
only.Comment: 19 pages, accepted by GRG, references corrected and adde
