Modulus Stabilization with Bulk Fields

arXiv:hep-ph/9907447 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.83.4922

Abstract

We propose a mechanism for stabilizing the size of the extra dimension in the Randall-Sundrum scenario. The potential for the modulus field that sets the size of the fifth dimension is generated by a bulk scalar with quartic interactions localized on the two 3-branes. The minimum of this potential yields a compactification scale that solves the hierarchy problem without fine tuning of parameters.
