Quasi gravity in branes

TL;DR

This paper explores a quasi-gravitational effect in brane worlds that mimics genuine gravity, potentially indistinguishable in certain non-relativistic and scalar-tensor contexts, offering insights into alternative gravitational phenomena.

Contribution

It introduces a quasi-gravitational effect in brane worlds that approximates true gravity, bridging pseudo-effects and genuine gravitational interactions in theoretical models.

Findings

Quasi-gravitational effects can mimic Newtonian gravity in brane models.

The effect resembles scalar-tensor gravity in relativistic regimes.

Potential for experimental indistinguishability from true gravity in certain conditions.

Abstract

In contrast with pseudo-gravitational effects that are mathematically analogous but physically quite distinct from gravity, this presentation deals with a kind of quasi-gravitational effect that can act in an asymmetrically moving brane worldsheet in a manner that approximates (and in a crude analysis might be physically indistinguishable from) the effect that would arise from genuine gravitation, of ordinary Newtonian type in non-relativistic applications, and of scalar - tensor (Jordan - Brans - Dicke rather than pure Einstein) type in relativistic applications.
