Mass dimension one fermions: Constructing darkness

DV Ahluwalia, JMH da Silva, CY Lee, YX Liu… - Physics Reports, 2022 - Elsevier
Let Θ be the Wigner time reversal operator for spin half and let ϕ be a Weyl spinor. Then, for
a left-transforming ϕ, the construct ζ λ Θ ϕ∗ yields a right-transforming spinor. If instead, ϕ is …

Introduction to extra dimensions and thick braneworlds

YX Liu - Memorial volume for Yi-shi Duan, 2018 - World Scientific
In this review, we give a brief introduction on the aspects of some extra dimension models
and the five-dimensional thick brane models in extended theories of gravity. First, we briey …

Model to localize gauge and tensor fields on thick branes

AER Chumbes, JM Hoff da Silva, MB Hott - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2012 - APS
It is shown that the introduction of a suitable function in the higher-dimensional gauge field
action may be used in order to achieve gauge bosons localization on a thick brane. The …

Scalar-kinetic branes

YX Liu, Y Zhong, K Yang - Europhysics Letters, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
This work tries to find out thick brane solutions in braneworld scenarios described by a real
scalar field in the presence of a scalar-kinetic term F (X, ϕ)= Xϕ m with a single extra …

Gauge field localization on the Bloch Brane

WT Cruz, ARP Lima, CAS Almeida - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2013 - APS
We present new results on the localization of gauge fields in thick brane models. The four-
dimensional observable universe is considered to be a topological defect which is …

gauge field localization on a Bloch brane with Chumbes-Holf da Silva-Hott mechanism

ZH Zhao, YX Liu, Y Zhong - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
We follow the Chumbes–Holf da Silva–Hott mechanism to study the (quasi) localization of
the U (1) gauge field on the Bloch brane. The localization and resonances of the U (1) …

WT Cruz, LJS Sousa, RV Maluf, CAS Almeida - Physics Letters B, 2014 - Elsevier
This work presents new results about the graviton massive spectrum in two-field thick
branes. Analyzing the massive spectra with a relative probability method we have firstly …

[HTML][HTML] Spatially localized scalar structures on hyperscaling violating geometries

I Andrade, MA Marques, R Menezes, DC Moreira - Nuclear Physics B, 2024 - Elsevier
In this work, we investigate probe scalar field models preserving covariance on fixed, static
background geometries that present hyperscaling violation properties. We develop a first …

Kinks in massive non-linear S1× S1-Sigma models

A Alonso-Izquierdo, AJB Sebastian, MAG Leon… - Physica D: Nonlinear …, 2022 - Elsevier
In this paper the whole kink varieties arising in several massive non-linear Sigma models
whose target space is the torus S 1× S 1 are analytically calculated. This possibility …

New localization method of U(1) gauge vector field on flat branes in (asymptotic) spacetime

ZH Zhao, QY Xie, Y Zhong - arXiv preprint arXiv:1406.3098, 2014 - arxiv.org
It is well known that the U (1) gauge vector field, with the standard five-dimensional (5D)
action, cannot be localized on Randall-Sundrum-like braneworlds with an infinite extra …
