Introduction to the Randall Sundrum Model — •Kristiane Novotny, Raoul Malm, Matthias Neubert, and Christoph Schmell — Institut für Physik, JGU

While SUSY offers a solution for the hierarchy problem, there exists another elegant approach, the so called warped extra dimensions (WED). WED were introduced by Randall and Sundrum (RS) by extending the 4-dimensional spacetime with a compact and strongly curved extra dimension of anti-de Sitter space. The RS model offers an elegant approach for solving the gauge and the Yukawa hierarchy problem.

In this talk the setup of the RS model and an overview of two implementations, focussing on the minimal and the custodial RS model is given.
