Collision of Domain Walls in asympotically Anti de Sitter spacetime

  • 1. Department of Physics, Waseda University, Okubo, Shinjuku, Tokyo 169-8555 (Japan)

Description

We study collision of two domain walls in 5-dimensional asymptotically Anti de Sitter spacetime. This may provide the reheating mechanism of an ekpyrotic brane universe, in which two BPS branes collide and evolve into a hot big bang universe. We evaluate a change of scalar field making the domain wall and can investigate the effect of a negative cosmological term in the bulk to the collision process and the evolution of our universe
