Cosmology of One Extra Dimension with Localized Gravity

Csaba Csaki, Michael Graesser, Christopher Kolda, John Terning

Abstract

We examine the cosmology of the two recently proposed scenarios for a five dimensional universe with localized gravity. We find that the scenario with a non-compact fifth dimension is potentially viable, while the scenario which might solve the hierarchy problem predicts a contracting universe, leading to a variety of cosmological problems.
