Abstract

The light braneworld radion, stabilized via the Goldberger-Wise mechanism in the Randall-Sundrum model, can be produced copiously inside the supernova core due to plasmon-plasmon annihilations. The radion, thus produced, subsequently decays to a neutrino-antineutrino pair and takes away the energy released in the SN1987A explosion. Assuming that the supernovae cooling rate for any new physics channel(Raffelt's criterion) ε˙(γPγPϕντντ)7.288×1027GeV\dot{\varepsilon}(\gamma_P\gamma_P \stackrel{\phi}{\longrightarrow} \nu_{\tau} \overline{\nu}_{\tau}) \leq 7.288\times 10^{-27} \rm{GeV}, we find the lower bound on the radion vacuum expectation value ϕ3\langle\phi\rangle \sim 3~TeV for mϕ=30m_\phi = 30 MeV corresponding to the deformation parameter q=1.17q=1.17 in the Tsallis statistics formalism. In the scenario with q=1q=1, we find ϕ=178\langle\phi\rangle = 178 GeV for mϕ=30m_\phi = 30 MeV.
