Higher-spin modes in a domain-wall universe

Abstract: We find a consistent set of equations of motion and constraints for massive higher-spin fluctuations in a gravitational background, required of certain characteristic properties but more general than constant curvature space. Of particular interest among such geometries is a thick domain wall−a smooth version of the Randall-Sundrum metric. Apart from the graviton zero mode, the brane accommodates quasi-bound massive states of higher spin contingent on the bulk mass. We estimate the mass and lifetime of these h… Show more

“…In particular, the cubic vertices of higher spin fields have been constructed in [9,11,13,14,[16][17][18]20,[22][23][24][25][26][27], the cubic vertices for higher spin fields coupled to external electromagnetic and gravitational backgrounds have been elaborated in [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. The quartic approximation of the interaction vertices has been studied much less (see e.g.…”
