Supersymmetric Large Extra Dimensions
Abstract
Description
This article summarizes the proposal to address the cosmological constant problem within the framework of supersymmetric large extra dimensions (SLED). The proposed mechanism is described, emphasizing the relaxation mechanism which ensures that low-energy particles like the electron do not contribute too large a vacuum energy. This is followed by a preliminary discussion of outstanding issues and observational consequences.
