The static potential for a massless scalar field shares the essential
features of the scalar gravitational mode in a tensorial perturbation analysis
about the background solution. Using the fluxbrane construction of [8] we
calculate the lowest order of the static potential of a massless scalar field
on a thin brane using series solutions to the scalar field's Klein Gordon
equation and we find that it has the same form as Newton's Law of Gravity. We
claim our method will in general provide a quick and useful check that one may
use to see if their model will recover Newton's Law to lowest order on the
brane.Comment: 5 pages, no figure
