Dynamical Radion Superfield in Five-dimensional Action
نویسندگان
چکیده
We clarify the radion superfield dependence of 5D N = 1 superspace action. The radion is treated as a dynamical field and appears in the action with the correct mode function. Our derivation is systematic and based on the superconformal formulation of 5D supergravity. We can read off the couplings of the dynamical radion superfield to the matter superfields from our result. The correct radion mass can be obtained by calculating the radion potential from our superspace action.

Dynamical radion superfield in 5D action
We derive 5D N = 1 superspace action including the radion superfield. The radion is treated as a dynamical field and identified as a solution of the equation of motion even in the presence of the radius stabilization mechanism. Our derivation is systematic and based on the superconformal formulation of 5D supergravity. We can read off the couplings of the dynamical radion superfield to the matt...
متن کاملFive-dimensional Massive Vector Fields and Radion Stabilization
We provide a description of the five-dimensional Higgs mechanism in supersymmetric gauge theories compactified on the orbifold S/Z2 by means of the N = 1 superfield formalism. Goldstone bosons absorbed by vector multiplets can come either from hypermultiplets or from gauge multiplets of opposite parity (Hosotani mechanism). Supersymmetry is broken by the Scherk-Schwarz mechanism. In the presenc...
متن کاملEffective action for the homogeneous radion in brane cosmology
We consider cosmological two-brane models with AdS bulk, for which the radion, i.e. the separation between the two branes, is time dependent. In the case of two de Sitter branes (including Minkowski branes as a limiting case), we compute explicitly, without any approximation, the effective fourdimensional action for the radion. With the scale factor on-shell, this provides the non-perturbative ...
متن کاملSuperfield description of 5D supergravity on general warped geometry
We provide a systematic and practical method of deriving 5D supergravity action described by 4D superfields on a general warped geometry, including a non-BPS background. Our method is based on the superconformal formulation of 5D supergravity, but is easy to handle thanks to the superfield formalism. We identify the radion superfield in the language of 5D superconformal gravity, and clarify its...
متن کاملOn the Stabilization of the Size of Extra Dimensions
We derive a general formalism for constructing a four-dimensional effective action for the radion field in 5 dimensions, taking into account the possible dependence of the scale factor on the internal coordinate. First and second variations of the action with respect to the size of the extra dimension reveals two types of algebraic constraints on the combination of brane and bulk Lagrangians th...
