Thraxions: Ultralight Throat Axions
Arthur Hebecker, Sascha Leonhardt, Jakob Moritz +1
We argue that a new type of extremely light axion is generically present in the type IIB part of the string theory landscape. Its mass is suppressed by the third power of the warp…
On uplifts by warped anti-D3-branes
Jakob Moritz, Ander Retolaza, Alexander Westphal
In this note we outline the arguments against the ten-dimensional consistency of the simplest types of KKLT de Sitter vacua, as given in arXiv:1707.08678. We comment on parametriza…
Racing through the swampland: de Sitter uplift vs weak gravity
Jakob Moritz, Thomas Van Riet
We observe that racetrack models for moduli stabilization are in tension with strong forms of the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC). Moreover, recently, it was noted that controlled KK…
