We address again the old problem of calculating the radion effective potential in Randall-Sundrum scenarios, with the Goldberger-Wise stabilization mechanism. Various prescriptions have been used in the literature, most of them based on heuristic derivations and then applied in some approximations. We define rigorously a light radion 4D effective action by using the interpolating field method. For a given choice of the interpolating field, defined as a functional of 5D fields, the radion effective action is uniquely defined by the procedure of integrating out the other fields, with the constrained 5D equations of motion always satisfied with help of the Lagrange multipliers. Thus, for a given choice of the interpolating fields we obtain a precise prescription for calculating the effective potential. Different choices of the interpolating fields give different prescriptions but in most cases very similar effective potentials. We confirm the correctness of one prescription used so far on a more heuristic basis and also find several new, much more economical, ways of calculating the radion effective potential. Our general considerations are illustrated by several numerical examples. It is shown that in some cases the old methods, especially in models with strong back-reaction, give results which are off even by orders of magnitude. Thus, our results are important e.g. for estimation of critical temperature in phase transitions.

With the data collected by LHC at 13 TeV, the CMS collaboration has searched for low mass resonances decaying into two photons. This has resulted in the observation of 3 sd excess around 95 GeV, reminiscent of an indication obtained at LEP2 by combin ing the Higgs boson searches of the four LEP experiments. These observations, marginally significant, motivate the present study which shows how HL-LHC and ILC250 could search for a radion, the lightest new particle predicted within the Randall Sundrum (RS) model. ILC operating at a centre of mass energy of 250 GeV and with an integrated luminosity surpassing LEP2 by three orders of magnitude, could become the ideal machine to study a light radion and to observe, with very high accuracy, how it mixes with the Higgs boson and modifies the various couplings.
In the Randall-Sundrum model where the Standard Model fields are confined to the TeV brane located at the orbifold point $theta = pi$ and the gravity peaks at the Planck brane located at $theta = 0$, the stabilized modulus (radion) field is required to stabilize the size of the fifth spatial dimension. It can be produced copiously inside the supernova core due to nucleon-nucleon bremstrahlung, electron-positron and plasmon-plasmon annihilations, which then subsequently decays to neutrino-antineutrino pair and take away the energy released in SN1987A explosion. Assuming that the supernovae cooling rate $dot{varepsilon} le 7.288times 10^{-27} rm{GeV}$, we find the lower bound on the radion vev $vphi sim 9.0$ TeV, 2.2 TeV and 0.9 TeV corresponding to the radion mass $m_phi = 5$ GeV, 20 GeV and 50 GeV, respectively.
We calculate the one-loop effective potential at finite temperature for a system of massless scalar fields with quartic interaction $lambdaphi^4$ in the framework of the boundary effective theory (BET) formalism. The calculation relies on the solutio n of the classical equation of motion for the field, and Gaussian fluctuations around it. Our result is non-perturbative and differs from the standard one-loop effective potential for field values larger than $T/sqrt{lambda}$.
The low energy effective potential for the model with a light scalar and a heavy scalar is derived. We perform the path integration for both heavy and light scalars and derive the low energy effective potential in terms of only the light scalar. The effective potential is independent of the renormalization scale approximately. By setting the renormalization scale equal to the mass of the heavy scalar, one finds the corrections with the logarithm of the ratio of the two scalar masses. The large logarithm is summed with the renormalization group (RG) and the RG improved effective potential is derived. The improved effective potential includes the one-loop correction of the heavy scalar and the leading logarithmic corrections due to the light scalar. We discuss the implication of the corrections to the parameters of the mass squared dimension as well as the cosmological constants.
We explore the sensitivity to new physics of the recently proposed vIOLETA experiment: a 10 kg Skipper Charged Coupled Device detector deployed 12 meters away from a commercial nuclear reactor core. We investigate two broad classes of models which be nefit from the very low energy recoil threshold of these detectors, namely neutrino magnetic moments and light mediators coupled to neutrinos and quarks or electrons. We find that this experimental setup is very sensitive to light, weakly coupled new physics, and in particular that it could probe potential explanations of the event excess observed in XENON1T. We also provide a detailed study on the dependence of the sensitivity on the experimental setup assumptions and on the neutrino flux systematic uncertainties.
