abstract

Recently, a new framework for solving the hierarchy problem has been proposed which does not rely on low energy supersymmetry or technicolor. The gravitational and gauge interactions unite at the electroweak scale, and the observed weakness of gravity at long distances is due the existence of large new spatial dimensions. In this letter, we show that this framework can be embedded in string theory. These models have a perturbative description in the context of type I string theory. The gravitational sector consists of closed strings propagating in the higher-dimensional bulk, while ordinary matter consists of open strings living on D3-branes. This scenario raises the exciting possibility that the LHC and NLC will experimentally study both ordinary aspects of string physics such as the production of narrow Regge-excitations of all standard model particles, as well more exotic phenomena involving strong gravity such as the production of black holes. The new dimensions can be probed by events with large missing energy carried off by gravitons escaping into the bulk. We finally discuss some important issues of model building, such as proton stability, gauge coupling unification and supersymmetry breaking.

Polydoxon Transformations and Scientific Reward in Physics

physics.hist-ph · 2026-05-09 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The paper develops a descriptive framework in which scientific reward in physics is understood as transformations of the Polydoxon, the structured set of viable theories, with reward scaling by the transformation's scope, centrality, depth, and future leverage.

Searching for a Dark Dimension Right-handed Neutrino in KATRIN

hep-ph · 2025-09-05 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

The paper derives KATRIN signatures for a 5D right-handed neutrino and shows that a large part of the compactification scale, bulk mass, and Yukawa coupling parameter space lies within experimental sensitivity, with multiple or single kinks depending on the bulk mass relative to the compactification

Neutrino Masses and Phenomenology in Nnaturalness

hep-ph · 2025-02-13 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Nnaturalness generates neutrino mass matrices through multi-sector mixing, excludes democratic couplings, and yields a tower of neutrino eigenstates with theory-determined mass splittings.

Modified Gravity and Cosmology

astro-ph.CO · 2011-06-13 · unverdicted · novelty 2.0

A comprehensive review of modified gravity theories and their cosmological consequences, including a parameterized post-Friedmannian formalism for constraining deviations from General Relativity.
