Resonances of Spin-1/2 Fermions in Eddington-Inspired Born-Infeld Gravity

We investigate the fermionic resonances for both chiralities in five-dimensional Eddington-inspired BornInfeld(EiBI)theory.In order to localize fermion on the brane,it needs to be considered the Yukawa coupling between the fermion and the background scalar field.In our models,since the background scalar field has kink,double kink,or anti-kink solution,the system has rich resonant Kaluza-Klein(KK)modes structure.The massive KK fermionic modes feel a volcano potential,which result in a fermionic zero mode and a set of continuous massive KK modes.The inner structure of the branes and a free parameter in background scalar field influence the resonant behaviors of the massive KK fermions.
