abstract

It is known that the Bloch brane is generated by an odd scalar field $\phi$ and an even one $\chi$. In order to localize a bulk fermion on the Bloch brane, the coupling between the fermion and scalars should be introduced. { There are two localization mechanisms in the literature, the Yukawa coupling $-\eta \bar{\Psi} F_1(\phi,\chi) \Psi$ and non-Yukawa coupling $\lambda \bar \Psi \Gamma^M \partial_M F_2(\phi,\chi) \gamma^5 \Psi $. The Yukawa coupling has been considered.} In this paper, we consider { both couplings between the fermion and the scalars with $F_1=\chi^m\phi^{2p+1}$ and $F_2=\chi^n\phi^{2q}$}, and investigate the localization and spectrum structure of the fermion on the Bloch brane. { It is found that the} left-handed fermion zero mode can be localized on the Bloch brane under some conditions, and the effective potentials have { rich} structure and may be volcano-like, finite square well-like, and infinite potentials. As a result, the spectrum { consists of} a series of resonant Kaluza-Klein fermions, finite or infinite numbers of bound Kaluza-Klein fermions. { Especially, we find a new feature of the introduction of both couplings: the spectrum for the case of finite square well-like potentials contains discrete quasi-localized and localized massive KK modes simultaneously.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.
