Categorisation and Detection of Dark Matter Candidates from String/M-theory Hidden Sectors
Bobby S. Acharya, Sebastian A. R. Ellis, Gordon L. Kane +2
We study well-motivated dark matter candidates arising from weakly-coupled hidden sectors in compactified string/-theory. Imposing generic top-down constraints greatly restricts…
The lightest visible-sector supersymmetric particle is likely to be unstable
Bobby S. Acharya, Sebastian A. R. Ellis, Gordon L. Kane +2
We argue, based on typical properties of known solutions of string/-theory, that the lightest supersymmetric particle of the visible sector will not be stable. In other words, d…
An Approach to the Cosmological Constant Problem(s)
G. L. Kane, M. J. Perry, A. N. Zytkow
We propose an approach to explaining why naive large quantum fluctuations are not the right estimate for the cosmological constant. We argue that the universe is in a superposition…
Proton Decay, Black Holes, and Large Extra Dimensions
Fred C. Adams, Gordon L. Kane, Manasse Mbonye +1
We consider proton decay in theories that contain large extra dimensions. If virtual black hole states are allowed by the theory, as is generally the case, then proton decay can pr…
