Supersymmetric Large Extra Dimensions and the Cosmological Constant Problem
arXiv:hep-th/0510123 · doi:10.1139/P06-031
Abstract
This article briefly summarizes and reviews the motivations for - and the present status of - the proposal that the small size of the observed Dark Energy density can be understood in terms of the dynamical relaxation of two large extra dimensions within a supersymmetric higher-dimensional theory.
