We study the ILC phenomenology of (1,0) Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes along two universal extra dimensions compactified on the chiral square. We compute production cross sections of various (1,0) particles at the ILC with sqrt(s)=1 TeV, focusing…
We investigate brane physics in a universe with an extra dimensional global monopole and negative bulk cosmological constant. The graviton zero mode is naturally divergent; we thus invoke a physical cut-off to induce four dimensional…
In this paper, we study a relativistic quantum dynamics of spin-$0$ scalar particle interacts with scalar potential in the presence of a uniform magnetic field and quantum flux in the background of Kaluza-Klein theory (KKT). We solve…
