Abstract:

We present a consistent string theory model which reproduces the Standard Model, consisting of a D3-brane at a simple orbifold singularity. We study some simple features of the phenomenology of the model. We find that the scale of stringy physics must be in the multi-TeV range. There are natural hierarchies in the fermion spectrum and there are several possible experimental signatures of the model.

membrane model: D-brane
string model
orbifold: singularity
lepton: mass spectrum
potential: Kaehler
anomaly
symmetry: U(1)
supersymmetry: symmetry breaking
