The Scales of Brane Nucleation Processes
arXiv:hep-th/0605253 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2006.11.022
Abstract
The scales associated with Brown-Teitelboim-Bousso-Polchinski processes of brane nucleation, which result in changes of the flux parameters and the number of D-branes, are discussed in the context of type IIB models with all moduli stabilized. It is argued that such processes are unlikely to be described by effective field theory.
