    Description
    We will talk about one embedding of the Standard Model in the flux scenario. This model has warped throats able to realize the Randall-Sundrum proposal to explain the hierachy of scales in a realistic frame of string theory. Most of the moduli are stabilized through different mechanisms. This model, once embedded in a full compactification, has the potential to lead to de Sitter vacua and inflactionary models. The concrete set-up we will discuss consists of anti-D3 branes located at an orbifold singularity at the bottom of a highly warped throat geometry, which is a generalization of the Klevanov- Strassler deformed conifold.
