Abstract

We comment on some implications of theories with large compactification radii\nand TeV-scale quantum gravity. These include the behavior of high-energy\ngravitational scattering cross sections and consequences for ultra-high-energy\ncosmic rays and neutrino scattering, the question of how to generate naturally\nlight neutrino masses, the issue of quark-lepton unification, the equivalence\nprinciple, and the cosmological constant.\n
