Either this force or the TeV (“T-E-V”) energy scale names the brane corresponding to the conventionally observable world in a theory that aimed to resolve the hierarchy problem. For 10 points each:
[10e] What force is unified with electromagnetism in the Standard Model?
ANSWER: weak force [or weak interaction or weak nuclear force; accept electroweak force or electroweak interaction; accept Weakbrane]
[10h] The Weakbrane is part of the first of two versions of this five-dimensional model of spacetime proposed by two eponymous physicists in 1999. Both versions of this model include the Planck brane.
ANSWER: Randall–Sundrum model [accept RS model or RS1 model or RS2 model]
[10m] The Randall–Sundrum model exemplifies this type of space with constant negative curvature. Juan Maldacena proposed a correspondence between conformal field theories, or CFTs, and this type of space partly named for a Dutch scientist.
ANSWER: anti-de Sitter space [or AdS space; accept AdS/CFT correspondence; reject “de Sitter space” or “dS space”]
