Spontaneous dark-matter mass generation along cosmological attractors in string theory
Thibaut Coudarchet, Lucien Heurtier, Herve Partouche
We propose a new scenario for generating a relic density of non-relativistic dark matter in the context of heterotic string theory. Contrary to standard thermal freeze-out scenario…
The Casimir effect in string theory
Alexandros Kehagias, Herve Partouche
We discuss the Casimir effect in heterotic string theory. This is done by considering a Z_2 twist acting on one external compact direction and three internal coordinates. The hyper…
Stability and vacuum energy in open string models with broken supersymmetry
Steven Abel, Emilian Dudas, Daniel Lewis +1
We construct type I string models with supersymmetry broken by compactification that are non-tachyonic and have exponentially small effective potential at one-loop. All open string…
Quantum no-scale regimes and string moduli
Herve Partouche
We review that in perturbative string theory, flat, homogeneous and isotropic cosmological evolutions found in no-scale models at the quantum level can enter into "quantum no-scale…
Quantum no-scale regimes and moduli dynamics
Thibaut Coudarchet, Herve Partouche
We analyze quantum no-scale regimes (QNSR) in perturbative heterotic string compactified on tori, with total spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry. We show that for marginal deform…
