Electric charge on the brane?

Understand

We consider black holes localized on the brane in the Randall-Sundrum infinite braneworld model.

• These configurations are static and charged with respect to a spherically symmetric, electric Maxwell field living on the brane.
• We start by attempting to construct vacuum black holes, in which case our conclusions are in agreement with those of Yoshino in JHEP 0901:068, 2009 (arXiv:0812.0465).
• Although approximate solutions appear to exist for sufficiently small brane tension, these are likely only numerical artifacts.
