Chiral Gepner Model Orientifolds
R. Blumenhagen, T. Weigand
We summarize recent progress in constructing orientifolds of Gepner models, a phenomenologically interesting class of exactly solvable string compactifications with viable gauge gr…

String Unification of Gauge Couplings with Intersecting D-branes
Ralph Blumenhagen
After reviewing the general structure of supersymmetric intersecting brane world models, we discuss the issue of stringy gauge coupling unification for a natural class of MSSM-like…

The Standard Model on the Quintic
Ralph Blumenhagen, Volker Braun, Boris Kors +1
We describe the general geometrical framework of brane world constructions in orientifolds of type IIA string theory with D6-branes wrapping 3-cycles in a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, and po…
