Phenomenology of Low Quantum Gravity Scale Models
We study some phenomenological implications of models where the scale of quantum gravity effects lies much below the four-dimensional Planck scale. These models arise from M-theory vacua where either the internal space volume is large or the string coupling is very small. We provide a critical analysis of ways to unify electroweak, strong and gravitational interactions in M-theory. We discuss t...
متن کاملPhenomenology of high-energy neutrinos in low-scale quantum-gravity models.
We show that neutrino telescopes, optimized for detecting neutrinos of TeV to PeV energy, can reveal threshold effects associated with TeV-scale gravity. The signature is an increase with energy of the cross section beyond what is predicted by the standard model. The advantage of the method is that the neutrino cross section is measured in an energy region where (i) the models are characteristi...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity Phenomenology
I give a brief non-technical review of " Quantum Gravity Phenomenology " and in particular I describe some studies which should soon allow to establish valuable data-based constraints on the short-distance structure of spacetime. The " quantum-gravity problem " has been studied for more than 70 years, but we still do not have a single experimental result whose interpretation requires us to advo...
متن کاملPhenomenology of low-scale supersymmetry breaking models
In this letter we consider the distinctive phenomenology of supersymmetric models in which the scale of SUSY breaking is very low, √ F = O(TeV), focusing on the Higgs sector and the process of electroweak breaking. Using an effective Lagrangian description of the interactions between the observable fields and the SUSY breaking sector, it is shown how the conventional MSSM picture can be substan...
متن کاملBaryogenesis in Models with a Low Quantum Gravity Scale
We make generic remarks about baryogenesis in models where the scale Ms of quantum gravity is much below the Planck scale. These correspond to M-theory vacua with a large volume for the internal space. Baryogenesis is a challenge, particularly for Ms <∼ 105 GeV, because there is an upper bound on the reheat temperature of the Universe, and because certain baryon number violating operators must ...
