Relaxation mechanisms: From Damour-Polyakov to Peccei-Quinn
arXiv:hep-ph/9506363 · doi:10.1142/S0217732395003124
Abstract
The ralaxation mechanism of Damour-Polyakov for fixing the vacuum expectation value of certain scalar fields (moduli) in string theory could provide a convenient framework for the Peccei-Quinn relaxation mechanism and remove the narrow "axion window".
