abstract

In the Randall-Sundrum scenario, our universe is a 4-dimensional `brane' living in a 5-dimensional bulk spacetime. By studying the scattering of bulk gravity waves, we show that this brane rings with a characteristic set of complex quasinormal frequencies, much like a black hole. To a bulk observer these modes are interpreted as metastable gravity wave bound states, while a brane observer views them as a discrete spectrum of decaying massive gravitons. Potential implications of these scattering resonances are discussed.

Quasinormal modes of scalar perturbations in Rastall thick brane

gr-qc · 2026-07-07 · conditional · novelty 5.0

The graviscalar quasinormal mode spectrum and late-time power-law tails of a Rastall thick brane are computed numerically, showing that the Rastall parameter λ controls mode lifetimes and tail exponents.

Scattering off Chamblin-Reall Branes

hep-th · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Holographic analysis of scattering off Chamblin-Reall branes shows that for d>1 incident radiation redistributes into reflected, transmitted, and evanescent components, with d=2 yielding diffuse scattering like a translucent window and d=4 requiring IR regulation.

Quasinormal modes of the thick braneworld in $f(T)$ gravity

gr-qc · 2026-04-09 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In a thick braneworld model with f(T) = T + α T², the parameter α induces brane splitting and alters the decay rates of quasinormal modes, with two numerical methods agreeing on the low-overtone spectrum.
