The relative positions as to the branes give a dynamical picture as to how lowest order KK gravitons could be affected by contraction and then subsequent expansion. Initially we have bulk gravitons as a vacuum state. The massless condition is just one solution to a Stern Liuouville operator equation we discuss, which with a non-zero lowest order mass for a KK graviton permits modeling of gravitons via a dynamical Casmir effect which we generalize using Ruser and Duerrer’s 2007 work. In particular the blue spectrum for (massless gravitons), is revisited, with consequences for observational astrophysics.展开更多
