Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Recent developments in the physics of extra dimensions have opened up new avenues to test such theories. We review cosmological aspects of brane world scenarios such as the Randall-Sundrum brane model and two-brane systems with a bulk scalar field. We start with the simplest brane world scenario leading to a consistent cosmology: a brane embedded in an anti-de Sitter space-time. We generalize this setting to the case with a bulk scalar field and then to two-brane systems. We discuss different ways of obtaining a low-energy effective theory for two-brane, systems, such as the moduli space approximation and the low-energy expansion. A comparison between the different methods is given. Cosmological perturbations are briefly discussed as well as early universe scenarios such as the cyclic model and the born-again brane world model. Finally we also present some physical consequences of brane, world scenarios on the cosmic microwave background and the variation of constants.
