Solitons in Brane Worlds II

Abstract

We study the solution describing a non-extreme dilatonic (p+1)-brane intersecting a D-dimensional extreme dilatonic domain wall, where one of its longitudinal directions is along the direction transverse to the domain wall, in relation to the Randall-Sundrum type model. The dynamics of the probe (p+1)-brane in such source background reproduces that of the probe p-brane in the background of the (D-1)-dimensional source p-brane. However, as for a probe test particle, the dynamics in one lower dimensions is reproduced, only when the source (p+1)-brane is uncharged.
