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 …

Gauge field localization in branes: coupling to a scalar function and coupling to torsion in teleparallel gravity scenario

ARP Moreira, FM Belchior, RV Maluf… - The European Physical …, 2023 - Springer
This paper is aimed at investigating the behavior of gauge vector and tensor fields on thick
brane in f (T) gravity. This thick brane is not capable of providing a normalizable zero mode …

Localization of abelian gauge fields with Stueckelberg-like geometrical coupling on f(TB)-thick brane

FM Belchior, ARP Moreira, RV Maluf… - The European Physical …, 2023 - Springer
In the context of f (T, B) modified teleparallel gravity, we investigate the influence of torsion
scalar T and boundary term B on the confinement of both the gauge vector and Kalb …

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 …

Localization of abelian gauge fields on thick branes

CA Vaquera-Araujo, O Corradini - The European Physical Journal C, 2015 - Springer
In this work, we explore a mechanism for abelian gauge field localization on thick branes
based on a five-dimensional Stueckelberg-like action. A normalizable zero mode is found …

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 …

Multi-kink braneworld configurations in the scalar-tensor representation of f (R, T) gravity

D Bazeia, AS Lobão, JL Rosa - The European Physical Journal Plus, 2022 - Springer
In this work, we investigate the f (R, T) brane in the scalar-tensor representation, where the
solutions of the equations of motions for the source field engender topological defects with …

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) …

Mechanism to control the internal structure of thick brane

D Bazeia, AS Lobão Jr - The European Physical Journal C, 2022 - Springer
In this work we study braneworlds generated by several scalar fields. The investigation
describes the necessary formalism to examine models and evaluate the conditions for the …
