Basic idea
A 3-brane moving in AdS5 background of the second
Randall-Sundrum (RSII) model behaves effectively as a
tachyon with the inverse quartic potential.
The RSII model may be extended to include the back
reaction due to the radion field. Then the tachyon
Lagrangian is modified by the interaction with the radion.
As a consequence, the effective equation of state
obtained by averaging over large scales describes a
warm dark matter.
Based on the work in colaboration with Garry Tupper
“Warm” Tachyon Matter from Back-reaction on the Brane”
, arXiv:1302.0955 [hep-th].

5. Conclusins&Outlook
Unstable modes in string theory can be described by an
effective Born-Infeld type lagrangian
for the “tachyon” field θ.
The typical potential has minima at . Of particular
interest is the inverse power law potential .
For n > 2 , as the tachyon rolls near minimum it behaves
like pressure-less matter (dust) or cold dark matter.

the motion of a 3-brane moving in a warped extra dimension.

Second Randall – Sundrum (RSII) model

The Randall-Sundrum solution corresponds to an empty
brane at the fixed point y=0. Placing matter on this
observer brane changes the bulk geometry; this is encoded
in the radion field related to the variation of the physical
interbrane distance d5(x).
2. Backreaction Model
The naive AdS5 geometry is distorted by the radion. To see
this, consider the total gravitational action in the bulk

This action describes a tachyon with inverse quartic

dark matter attractor, so very quickly and one
thus apparently gets cold geometric tachyon matter.

N. B., G. Tupper, R.Viollier, Cosmological tachyon condensation.
Phys. Rev. D 80 (2009)
Tachyon has been heavily exploited in almost any
cosmological context: tachyon as inflaton, tachyon as DM,
tachyon as DE
1. The geometric tachyon is seen on our brane as a
form of matter and hence it affects the bulk
geometry in which it moves.
2. The back-reaction qualitatively changes the
geometric tachyon: the tachyon and radion form a
composite substance with a modified equation of
state.
The dynamical brane causes two back-reaction effects

CDM is rather successful in explaining the large-scale
power spectrum and CMB spectrum.
However there is some inconsistency of many body
simulations with observations:
1. Overproduction of satellite galaxies
2. Modelling haloes with a central cusp.
4. Warm Dark Matter
It is believed that these problems may be alleviated
to some extent with the so called Warm DM
Besides, it has been recently argued that
cosmological data favour a dark matter equation
of state wDM ≈ 0.01
We assume that our equation of state w≈0.009 corresponds
to that of (nonrelativistic) DM thermal relics of mass mDM at
the time of radiation-matter equality teq

This gives mDM ≈ 0.8 keV

To demonstrate that our asymptotic equation of state is
associated with WDM, we will show that the horizon mass at
the time when the equivalent DM particles just become
nonrelativistic is typically of the order of a small galaxy mass.
These DM particles have become non relativistic at the

Conclusions&Outlook
• We have demonstrated that back-reaction causes the
brane – radion system to behave as “warm” tachyon
matter with a linear barotropic equation of state
• The ultimate question regards the clustering properties
of the model. At the linear level one expects a
suppression of small-scale structure formation: initially
growing modes undergo damped oscillations once they
enter the co-moving acoustic horizon
• Perturbation theory is not the whole story – it would be
worth studying the nonlinear effects, e.g., using the
Press-Schechter formalism as in the pure tachyon model

Changing Y to a new field we obtain the effective brane action = /kY e k In the absence of the radion field ϕ we have a pure undistorted AdS5 background and This action describes a tachyon with inverse quartic potential. Although p =L < 0, the steep potential drives a dark matter attractor, so very quickly and one thus apparently gets cold geometric tachyon matter. R. Abramo and F.

  • 17. 1. The geometric tachyon is seen on our brane as a form of matter and hence it affects the bulk geometry in which it moves. 2. The back-reaction qualitatively changes the geometric tachyon: the tachyon and radion form a composite substance with a modified equation of state. The dynamical brane causes two back-reaction effects

Overproduction of satellite galaxies 2. Modelling haloes with a central cusp. 4. Warm Dark Matter It is believed that these problems may be alleviated to some extent with the so called Warm DM Besides, it has been recently argued that cosmological data favour a dark matter equation of state wDM ≈ 0.01

  • 32. Conclusions&Outlook • We have demonstrated that back-reaction causes the brane – radion system to behave as “warm” tachyon matter with a linear barotropic equation of state • The ultimate question regards the clustering properties of the model. At the linear level one expects a suppression of small-scale structure formation: initially growing modes undergo damped oscillations once they enter the co-moving acoustic horizon • Perturbation theory is not the whole story – it would be worth studying the nonlinear effects, e.g., using the Press-Schechter formalism as in the pure tachyon model of N.
