Abstract

A thick de Sitter brane constructed by a canonical or phantom scalar field and localization mass spectra of the bulk scalar and vector fields on the de Sitter brane is investigated. It is found that the scalar and vector zero modes are always localized on the de Sitter brane. For the de Sitter brane generated by a canonical scalar field, the spectrum of the scalar (vector) KK modes consists of one or two bound modes (one bound mode) and a set of continuous modes. However, for the de Sitter brane generated by a phantom scalar field, the spectrum of the scalar (vector) KK modes consists of two (one) or more bound KK modes as well as a set of continuous modes. The continuous spectrum on both branes starts with a same value for the scalar (vector) KK modes.
