A mechanism for addressing the “decompactification problem” is proposed, which consists of balancing the vacuum energy in Scherk-Schwarzed theories against contributions coming from non-perturbative physics. Universality of threshold corrections ensu... Read More about A dynamical mechanism for large volumes with consistent couplings.

Photo-production of a 750 GeV di-photon resonance mediated by Kaluza-Klein leptons in the loop (2016)
Journal Article
Abel, S., & Khoze, V. V. (2016). Photo-production of a 750 GeV di-photon resonance mediated by Kaluza-Klein leptons in the loop. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(5), Article 063. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep05%282016%29063

We consider the phenomenology of a 750 GeV resonance X which can be produced at the LHC by only photon fusion and subsequently decay into di-photons. We propose that the spin-zero state X is coupled to a heavy lepton that lives in the bulk of a highe...

Shift-Symmetries at Higher Order (2016)
Journal Article
Abel, S., & Stewart, R. (2016). Shift-Symmetries at Higher Order. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016(2), Article 182. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep02%282016%29182

The fate of shift-symmetries in effective string models is considered beyond tree-level. Such symmetries have been proposed in the past as a way to maintain a hierarchically small Higgs mass and also play a role in schemes of cosmological relaxation....
