Gauging flavour in meta-stable SUSY breaking models (2006)
Journal Article
Forste, S. (2006). Gauging flavour in meta-stable SUSY breaking models. Physics Letters B, 642(1-2), 142-146. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2006.09.026

We modify the first ISS model [K. Intriligator, N. Seiberg, D. Shih, JHEP 0604 (2006) 021, hep-th/0602239] by gauging a diagonal flavour symmetry. We add additional multiplets transforming as fundamentals and anti-fundamentals under the gauged flavou... Read More about Gauging flavour in meta-stable SUSY breaking models.

Heterotic brane world (2004)
Journal Article
Forste, S., Nilles, H., Vaudrevange, P., & Wingerter, A. (2004). Heterotic brane world. Physical Review D, Particles and fields, 70(10), Article 106008. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.70.106008

Orbifold compactification of heterotic E8×E8[prime] string theory is a source for promising grand unified model building. It can accommodate the successful aspects of grand unification while avoiding problems like doublet-triplet splitting in the Hig... Read More about Heterotic brane world.

Supersymmetric Z<SUB>N</SUB>×Z<SUB>M</SUB> orientifolds in 4D with D-branes at angles (2001)
Journal Article
Förste, S., Honecker, G., & Schreyer, R. (2001). Supersymmetric ZN×ZM orientifolds in 4D with D-branes at angles. Nuclear Physics B, 593(1-2), 127-154. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0550-3213%2800%2900616-7

We construct orientifolds of type IIA string theory. The theory is compactified on a T6/ZN×ZM orbifold. In addition worldsheet parity in combination with a reflection of three compact directions is modded out. Tadpole cancellation requires to add D-6...
