    11 Theory with D = 4 + d dimensions, in which d is spatial and compactified in a sphere of radius R. Because only spin-2 particles can propagate through D dimensions, a massive KK tower of spin-2 particles appear. They can interact with the SM fields with a very weak coupling constant given by -1/L:
     11Theory with D = 4 + d dimensions, with additional d spatial dimensions assumed to be compactified to be a torus with common radius R. Because only spin-2 particles can propagate through D dimensions, a massive KK tower of spin-2 particles appear in 4 dimensions. They can interact with the SM fields with a very weak coupling constant given by -1/L:

     13L = \overline{M,,pl,,} ~ 2.4 x 10^18^ GeV

    15 The mass gap between neighbouring modes is proportional to 1/R, hence small for d not too large. The discrete mass spectrum can be approximated by a continuum with a  integrated density of states. In other words, the 4 dimensional spin-2 appears as a infinite sum of its excited states.

    32 Theory with D = 4 + 1 dimensions, in which the extra dimension is spatial and compactified in a sphere of radius R. Here, the total space-time has a warped metric and the size of the extra dimension  can be at the order of the Planck length. Again, only spin-2 particles can propagate through 5 dimensions, therefore, a massive KK tower of spin-2 particles appear. They can interact with the SM fields with a strong coupling constant given by -1/L:
