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.

  1. Two types of quasinormal modes of Casadio-Fabbri-Mazzacurati brane-world black holes

    gr-qc 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quasinormal modes of massive scalars in CFM brane-world black holes split into two types, with modes disappearing at critical masses where real or imaginary frequency parts reach zero.

  2. Quasinormal Ringing of de Sitter Braneworlds

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Thin and thick de Sitter braneworlds have discrete, purely imaginary quasinormal frequencies for gravitational perturbations, with decay rates set by the Hubble constant and, for thick branes, by the brane width parameter.

  3. Quasinormal modes of scalar perturbations in Rastall thick brane

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.

  4. Real Part Emergence in Purely Imaginary Quasinormal Modes in Perturbed de Sitter Braneworlds

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Perturbations on a thick de Sitter brane induce a real part in previously purely imaginary quasinormal modes, creating intermediate oscillatory signatures in time-domain signals while late-time behavior stays zero-mod...

  5. Scattering off Chamblin-Reall Branes

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    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 tran...

  6. Two-scalar-field $f(R)$ Thick Branes, Gravitational Resonances and Quasinormal Modes

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    In ghost-free two-scalar f(R) thick branes, internal structure produces no narrow real-axis tensor resonances; quasinormal modes are broad with quality factors 0.9-1.9.

  7. Scalar-gravitational quasinormal modes and echoes in a five dimensional thick brane

    gr-qc 2025-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Scalar perturbations of a split five-dimensional thick brane yield long-lived quasinormal modes and position-dependent echo waveforms: clean periodic echoes on a sub-brane and modulated echoes between sub-branes.
