Cosmological constant, brane tension and large hierarchy in a generalized Randall-Sundrum braneworld scenario

Abstract

We consider a generalized Randall Sundrum (RS) brane world scenario with a cosmological constant $\Omega$ induced on the visible brane. We show that for $\Omega <0$, resolution of the hierarchy problem requires an upper bound on the magnitude of $\Omega$. The corresponding tension on the visible brane can be positive or negative. On the other hand, there is no such bound for $\Omega >0$. However, in this case, the resolution of the hierarchy problem along with the tuning of the value of the cosmological constant to its observed value closed to $+10^{-124}$ (in Planck units) naturally lead to the tuning of the modulus to a small value of inverse Planck length as estimated in the original RS scenario.
