Renormalized Masses of Heavy Kaluza-klein States
نویسنده
چکیده
Several ways of computing the radiative corrections to the heavy boson masses in Kaluza-Klein theory are discussed. It is argued that only an intrinsically higher dimensional approach embodies all the desired physical properties.

Neutrino Oscillations without Neutrino Masses or Heavy Mass Scales: A Higher-Dimensional Seesaw Mechanism
Recent theoretical developments have shown that extra spacetime dimensions can lower the fundamental GUT, Planck, and string scales. However, recent evidence for neutrino oscillations suggests the existence of light nonzero neutrino masses, which in turn suggests the need for a heavy mass scale via the seesaw mechanism. In this short note, we make two observations. First, we show that a higher-...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein states versus winding states: can both be above the string scale?
Closed strings in extra compactified dimensions give rise to both Kaluza-Klein states and winding states. Since the masses of these states play a reciprocal role, it is often believed that either the lightest Kaluza-Klein states or the lightest winding states must be at or below the string scale. In this Letter, we demonstrate the contrary, showing that there exist toroidal compactifications fo...
متن کاملGlueballs and Their Kaluza-Klein Cousins
Spectra of glueball masses in non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in three and four dimensions have recently been computed using the conjectured duality between superstring theory and large N gauge theory. The KaluzaKlein states of supergravity do not correspond to any states in the Yang-Mills theory and therefore should decouple in the continuum limit. On the other hand, in the supergravity l...
متن کاملGaugephobic Higgs Signals at the LHC
The Gaugephobic Higgs model provides an interpolation between three different models of electroweak symmetry breaking: Higgsless models, Randall-Sundrum models, and the Standard Model. At parameter points between the extremes, Standard Model Higgs signals are present at reduced rates, and Higgsless Kaluza-Klein excitations are present with shifted masses and couplings, as well as signals from e...
متن کاملA Note on Gaugino Masses in Kaluza-Klein/Radion Mediated SUSY Breaking
We review the equivalence of two approaches to study theories with gauge fields in extra spatial dimensions, namely the “4D” approach (with KK states) and the “5D” approach (with matching to the 4D theory at the compactification scale). In particular, we reiterate that there are two different power-law scalings of “effective” gauge couplings. In a supersymmetric framework with SUSY breaking in ...
