Inflating Kahler Moduli and Primordial Magnetic Fields
Luis Aparicio, Anshuman Maharana
We study the production of primordial magnetic fields in inflationary models in type IIB string theory where the role of the inflaton is played by a Kahler modulus. We consider var…
Moduli Stabilisation with Nilpotent Goldstino: Vacuum Structure and SUSY Breaking
Luis Aparicio, Fernando Quevedo, Roberto Valandro
We study the effective field theory of KKLT and LVS moduli stabilisation scenarios coupled to an anti-D3-brane at the tip of a warped throat. We describe the presence of the anti-b…
Sequestered de Sitter String Scenarios: Soft-terms
Luis Aparicio, Michele Cicoli, Sven Krippendorf +3
We analyse soft supersymmetry breaking in type IIB de Sitter string vacua after moduli stabilisation, focussing on models in which the Standard Model is sequestered from the supers…
Some phenomenological aspects of Type IIB/F-theory string compactifications
Luis Aparicio
This article is the PhD thesis of the author. It is focused on Type II compactifications because of the potential for the construction of realistic MSSM-like compactifications. In…
Flux and Instanton Effects in Local F-theory Models and Hierarchical Fermion Masses
Luis Aparicio, Anamaria Font, Luis E. Ibanez +1
We study the deformation induced by fluxes and instanton effects on Yukawa couplings involving 7-brane intersections in local F-theory constructions. In the absence of non-perturba…
