Description
Assuming that we live on a non rigid brane with TeV-scale tension, the scalar fields that control the coordinates of our brane in the extra dimensions give rise to missing energy signals at high-energy colliders with a characteristic angular and energy spectrum, identical to the one due to graviton emission in 6 extra dimensions. LEP bounds and LHC capabilities are analyzed.
