Abstract

We present a detailed study of radion stabilization within 5D conformal SUGRA compactified on an S(1)/Z2S^{(1)}/Z_2 orbifold. We use an effective 4D superfield description developed in our previous work. The effects of tree level bulk and boundary couplings, and in particular of one loop contributions and of a non perturbative correction on the radion stabilization are investigated. We find new examples of radion stabilization in non SUSY and (meta-stable) SUSY preserving Minkowski vacua.
