One-loop diagrams containing a graviton provide a finite contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment $\al$ of a lepton, whether or not the graviton propagates in $n$ large extra compact dimensions. In the present work, the tree graph…

We propose a symmetrized form of the softened gravitational potential which is a natural extension of the Plummer potential. The gravitational potential at the position of particle i (x_i,y_i,z_i), induced by particle j at (x_j,y_j,z_j), is…
