  In a recent work, a model has been proposed where a brane is made of a scalar
field with bounce-type configurations and embedded in a bulk with a string-like
metric. This model produces an AdS scenario where the components of the energy
momentum tensor are finite and have its positivity ensured by a suitable choice
of the bounce configurations. In the present work, we study the issue of gauge
and fermion field localization in this scenario. In contrast with the five
dimensional case here the gauge field is localized without the dilaton
contribution. Nevertheless, it is remarkable that the localization of the
fermion field depends on the introduction of a minimal coupling with the
angular component of the gauge field, which differs clearly from five
dimensional scenarios. Furthermore, we perform a qualitative analysis of the
fermionic massive modes and conclude that only left handed fermions could be
localized in the brane.
