| contents | In this work we analyze the classical confinement of relativistic and supersymmetric spinning particles in higher-codimension braneworlds. Considering warped backgrounds generated by string-like $ n=2$ and global scalar defects $ n \geq 3$, we derive the effective radial dynamics from a Polyakov-type action. For spinless particles, the effective potential is monotonically decreasing, leading to repulsive behavior and the absence of confinement. In contrast, for $N=1,2 $ spinning particles, spin-curvature coupling modifies the potential, allowing the emergence of stable equilibrium points. Depending on the coupling parameter, particles may be confined on the membrane or in nearby regions, exhibiting bounded or satellite-like motion. These results emphasize the role of spin in localization mechanisms. |
