Abstract

This proceedings is from a talk given at the APS DPF 2013 on a 5- dimensional brane world model. This alternative brane world model is formally related but physically distinct from the Randall-Sundrum brane world model. The spin dependent localization of 5D fields for the alternative model are different and in some ways superior to the RandallSundrum. The alternative model also exhibits a cutoff in the localization of massive scalar fields not seen in the Randall-Sundrum model. This revision includes a correction to the integrand for the scalar field action appearing in the principle reference [1].
