Description
One of the most interesting features of braneworld models is the existence of massive gravitational modes in addition to the usual massless one. Mixing of the modes which depends nontrivially on the inter-brane distance can be interpreted as radion-induced gravitational-wave oscillations, a classical analogy to meson and neutrino oscillations. We show that these oscillations arising in M-theory inspired two-brane setups could lead to effects detectable by gravitational-wave interferometers.
