A Confinement Potential for Leptons and Their Tunneling Effects into
Extra-Dimensions    [PDF]

Akira Kokado, Takesi Saito

It is shown that neutrinos can move easily from the D3-brane to the extra-dimension by a mechanism of the tunneling effect, whereas other heavy leptons cannot do that because of their heavier mass than the neutrino mass, but move only on the D3-brane. The propagation length of the neutrino in the extra-dimension is also calculated and compared with the corresponding length on the D3-brane.
