How to Extrapolate A String Model to Finite Temperature: Interpolations and Implications for the Hagedorn Transition
Keith R. Dienes, Michael Lennek
In this paper, we discuss the important question of how to extrapolate a given zero-temperature string model to finite temperature. It turns out that this issue is surprisingly sub…
Re-Identifying the Hagedorn Transition
Keith R. Dienes, Michael Lennek
The Hagedorn transition in string theory is normally associated with an exponentially rising density of states, or equivalently with the existence of a thermal string winding mode…
Thermal Duality Confronts Entropy: A New Approach to String Thermodynamics?
Keith R. Dienes, Michael Lennek
One of the most intriguing features of string thermodynamics is thermal duality, which relates the physics at temperature T to the physics at inverse temperature 1/T. Unfortunately…
Beautified with Goodly Shape: Rethinking the Properties of Large Extra Dimensions
Keith R. Dienes
Much recent attention has focused on theories with large extra compactified dimensions. However, while the phenomenological implications of the volume moduli associated with such c…
TeV-scale GUTs
Keith R. Dienes, Emilian Dudas, Tony Gherghetta
In this talk, we summarize our recent proposal for lowering the scale of grand unification to the TeV range though the appearance of extra spacetime dimensions. Particular emphasis…
Twenty Open Questions in Supersymmetric Particle Physics
Keith R. Dienes, Christopher Kolda
We give a brief overview of 20 open theoretical questions in supersymmetric particle physics. The 20 questions we have chosen range from the GeV scale to the Planck scale, and incl…
