Voisin-Borcea Manifolds and Heterotic Orbifold Models
Wilfried Buchmuller, Jan Louis, Jonas Schmidt +1
We study the relation between a heterotic T^6/Z6 orbifold model and a compactification on a smooth Voisin-Borcea Calabi-Yau three-fold with non-trivial line bundles. This orbifold…
Dynamical Matter-Parity Breaking and Gravitino Dark Matter
Jonas Schmidt, Christoph Weniger, Tsutomu T. Yanagida
Scenarios where gravitinos with GeV masses make up dark matter are known to be in tension with high reheating temperatures, as required by e.g. thermal leptogenesis. This tension c…
Coupling Brane Fields to Bulk Supergravity
Susha L. Parameswaran, Jonas Schmidt
In this note we present a simple, general prescription for coupling brane localized fields to bulk supergravity. We illustrate the procedure by considering 6D N=2 bulk supergravity…
Light Moduli in Almost No-Scale Models
Wilfried Buchmuller, Jan Moller, Jonas Schmidt
We discuss the stabilization of the compact dimension for a class of five-dimensional orbifold supergravity models. Supersymmetry is broken by the superpotential on a boundary. Cla…
Higgs versus Matter in the Heterotic Landscape
Wilfried Buchmuller, Jonas Schmidt
In supersymmetric extensions of the standard model there is no basic difference between Higgs and matter fields, which leads to the well known problem of potentially large baryon a…
Non-thermal fixed points: effective weak-coupling for strongly correlated systems far from equilibrium
J. Berges, A. Rothkopf, J. Schmidt
Strongly correlated systems far from equilibrium can exhibit scaling solutions with a dynamically generated weak coupling. We show this by investigating isolated systems described…
