Parametric photon creation via the dynamical Casimir effect (DCE) is evaluated numerically, in a three-dimensional rectangular resonant cavity bisected by a semiconductor diaphragm (SD), which is...
Doukas, Jason, Cho, H. T., Cornell, A. S., Naylor, Wade
In this article we present results for tensor graviton modes (in seven dimensions and greater, $n\geq 3$) for greybody factors of Kerr-dS black holes and for Hawking radiation from simply rotating...
Cho, H. T., Cornell, A. S., Doukas, Jason, Naylor, Wade
In this work we calculate the angular eigenvalues of the $(n+4)$-dimensional {\it simply} rotating Kerr-(A)dS spheroidal harmonics using the Asymptotic Iteration Method (AIM). We make some...

Using the WKBJ approximation we obtain numerical plots of the power emission spectrum for the evaporation of massless bulk Dirac fermions from six dimensional black holes off a tense 3-brane with...
Fermion excitations of a tense brane black hole (2007)
Cho, H. T., Cornell, A. S., Doukas, Jason, Naylor, Wade
By finding the spinor eigenvalues for a single deficit angle (d-2)-sphere, we derive the radial potential for fermions on a d-dimensional black hole background that is embedded on a codimension two...

Cho, H. T., Cornell, A. S., Doukas, Jason, Naylor, Wade
Using the WKBJ approximation, and the Unruh method, we obtain semi-analytic expressions for the absorption probability (in all energy regimes) for Dirac fermions on a higher dimensional Schwarzschild...
Casimir effect in rugby-ball type flux compactifications (2007)
Elizalde, Emilio, Minamitsuji, Masato, Naylor, Wade
As a continuation of the work in \cite{mns}, we discuss the Casimir effect for a massless bulk scalar field in a 4D toy model of a 6D warped flux compactification model,to stabilize the volume...
Split fermion quasi-normal modes (2007)
Cho, H. T., Cornell, A. S., Doukas, Jason, Naylor, Wade
In this paper we use the conformal properties of the spinor field to show how we can obtain the fermion quasi-normal modes for a higher dimensional Schwarzschild black hole. These modes are of...
Volume stabilization in a warped flux compactification model (2006)
Minamitsuji, Masato, Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
We investigate the stability of the extra dimensions in a warped, codimension two braneworld that is based upon an Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with a non-vanishing scalar field potential. The...
Electroweak inflation and reheating in the NMSSM (2005)
Fukuyama, Takeshi, Kikuchi, Tatsuru, Naylor, Wade
A low reheating temperature is now well motivated by the recently reconsidered gravitino problem, if we incorporate supergravity. In this article, we propose a model which naturally realizes a low...
Can thick braneworlds be self-consistent? (2005)
Minamitsuji, Masato, Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
We discuss the backreaction of a massless, minimally coupled, quantized scalar field on a thick, two-dimensional de Sitter (dS) brane as an extension of our previous work. We show that a finite brane...
Graviton emission from a higher-dimensional black hole (2005)
Cornell, A. S., Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
We discuss the graviton absorption probability (greybody factor) and the cross-section of a higher-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole (BH). We are motivated by the suggestion that a great many BHs...
Reheat Temperature and the Right-handed Neutrino Mass (2005)
Fukuyama, Takeshi, Kikuchi, Tatsuru, Naylor, Wade
We discuss the reheating temperature in the instant preheating scenario. In this scenario, at the last stage of inflation, the inflaton field first decays into another scalar field with an enormous...
Quantum fluctuations on a thick de Sitter brane (2005)
Minamitsuji, Masato, Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
We investigate quantum fluctuations on a de Sitter (dS) brane, which has its own thickness, in order to examine whether or not the finite thickness of the brane can act as a natural cut-off for the...
Partition function for a singular background (2004)
Mckenzie-Smith, J. J., Naylor, Wade
We present a method for evaluating the partition function in a varying external field. Specifically, we look at the case of a non-interacting, charged, massive scalar field at finite temperature with...
Quantum Fluctuations for de Sitter Branes in Bulk AdS(5) (2004)
The vacuum expectation value of the square of the field fluctuations of a scalar field on a background consisting of {\it two} de Sitter branes embedded in an anti-de Sitter bulk are considered. We...

Flachi, Antonino, Knapman, Alan, Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
We present a calculation of the zeta function and of the functional determinant for a Laplace-type differential operator, corresponding to a scalar field in a higher dimensional de Sitter brane...
Fermion Casimir energy for a de Sitter brane in AdS(5) (2003)
Moss, Ian G., Santiago-Germán, Wenceslao, Naylor, Wade, Sasaki, Misao
Based on some recent work of the authors, we focus on the relationship between the Casimir energy of a Majorana spinor field for a Euclidean Einstein universe $S^4\times R$ and for a Euclidean de...

Moss, Ian G., Naylor, Wade, Santiago-Germán, Wenceslao, Sasaki, Misao
We investigate some issues regarding quantum corrections for de Sitter branes in a bulk AdS(5) spacetime. The one-loop effective action for a Majorana spinor field is evaluated and compared with the...

Quantum corrections to the kinetic term in the Randall-Sundrum model (2001)
The effective action of the radion in the Randall-Sundrum model is analysed. Fine tunings are needed to obtain the observed mass hierarchy and an invisible radion. since the kinetic terms are...
Effective action for bubble nucleation rates (2001)
We develop a method to calculate the prefactor in the expression for the bubble nucleation rate. A fermion with Yukawa coupling is considered where a step potential can be used as a good...
Diagrams for heat kernel expansions (2001)
A diagramatic heat kernel expansion technique is presented. The method is especially well suited to the small-derivative expansion of the heat kernel, but it can also be used to reproduce the results...
