Description
Compact stars with Kaluza-Klein excitations are considered and
constraints on the size of compactified extra dimensions are
given.
The model is a static, spherically symmetric Kaluza-Klein-based
theory with one extra compactified dimension. A realistic equation of
state has been introduced and applied in order to reproduce compact
star observables. Comparison of the theoretical calculation with
available observational data led us to consequences on the size of extra
dimensions within the Kaluza-Klein framework.
