Higher rank antisymmetric tensor fields in Klebanov-Strassler geometry

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-05-18 v1

Abstract

In string theory, higher rank antisymmetric tensor fields appear as massless excitations of closed strings. Till date there is no experimental support in favour of their existence. In a stringy framework, starting from a warped throat-like Klebanov-Strassler geometry, we show that all the massless higher rank antisymmetric tensor fields are heavily suppressed due to the background fluxes leading to their invisibility in our Universe.
