Localization of gauge bosons in the 5D standing wave braneworld

TL;DR

This paper studies how gauge bosons can be localized on a 5D brane with standing waves, demonstrating that normalizable zero modes exist with an increasing warp factor, which is crucial for realistic models.

Contribution

It shows the existence of localized gauge field zero modes in a 5D standing wave braneworld with increasing warp factor, advancing brane-world localization mechanisms.

Findings

Normalizable gauge zero modes exist with increasing warp factor.

Localization depends on the warp factor behavior.

Provides a mechanism for gauge field confinement on the brane.

Abstract

We investigate the problem of localization of gauge fields within the 5D standing wave braneworld model and show that in the case of increasing warp factor there exist normalizable vector field zero modes on the brane.
