A Mini-Review of Constraints on Extra Dimensions

Abstract

We present a mini-review of present constraints of the large extra dimension scenario. We show many experiments and considerations that can constrain the fundamental scale of the large extra dimension. We observe that constraints come from collider experiments are much weaker than those of astrophysical and cosmological considerations. When the number of extra dimension n is smaller than 4, the constraint is so strong that the large extra dimension scenario cannot solve hierarchy problem. But when n >= 4 there is still possibility that it can solve the hierarchy problem.

11 pages, no figures. Corrected version 3. The definition of the fundamental scale is unified. Some articles are additionally refered
