Gaugino Condensation and SUSY Breakdown

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

We review the mechanism of gaugino condensation in the framework of the d=10d=10 heterotic string and its d=11d=11 extension of Horava and Witten. In particular we emphasize the relation between the gaugino condensate and the flux of the antisymmetric tensor fields of higher dimensional supergravity. Its potential role for supersymmetry breakdown and moduli stabilization is investigated.
