英文摘要 | An asymmetric thick domain wall solution with de Sitter (dS) expansion in five dimensions can be constructed from a symmetric one by using a same scalar (kink) with different potentials. In this paper, by presenting the mass-independent potentials of Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes in the corresponding Schrodinger equations, we investigate the localization and mass spectra of various bulk matter fields on the symmetric and asymmetric dS thick branes. For spin 0 scalars and spin 1 vectors, the potentials of KK modes in the corresponding Schrodinger equations are the modified Poschl-Teller potentials, and there exist a mass gap and a series of continuous spectrum. It is shown that the spectrum of scalar KK modes on the symmetric dS brane contains only one bound mode (the massless mode). However, for the asymmetric dS brane with a large asymmetric factor, there are two bound scalar KK modes: a zero mode and a massive mode. For spin 1 vectors, the spectra of KK modes on both dS branes consist of a bound massless mode and a set of continuous ones, i.e., the asymmetric factor does not change the number of the bound vector KK modes. For spin 1/2 fermions, two types of kink-fermion couplings are investigated in detail. For the usual Yukawa coupling eta(Psi) over bar phi Psi, there exists no mass gap but a continuous gapless spectrum of KK states. For the scalar-fermion coupling eta(Psi) over bar sin(phi/phi(0)) cos(-delta)(phi/phi(0))Psi with a positive coupling constant eta, there exist some discrete bound KK modes and a series of continuous ones. The total number of bound states increases with the coupling constant eta. For the case of the symmetric dS brane and positive eta, there are N-L(N-L >= 1) left chiral fermion bound states (including zero mode and massive KK modes) and N-L - 1 right chiral fermion bound states (including only massive KK modes). For the asymmetric dS brane scenario, the asymmetric factor a reduces the number of the bound fermion KK modes. For large enough a, there would not be any right chiral fermion bound mode, but at least one left chiral fermion zero mode. |
