Not to contradict the observational data the brane width should be of about Planck size giving therefore strict criterion in selecting the realistic braneworld models.3 pages, 1 fugureHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyHigh Energy Physics - TheoryStringent bounds on the brane width from stellar interferometry and distant gamma ray bursts: Back to the hierarchy problem?text
