Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Rochester, Rochester NY 14627-0171 Abstract In the framework of a Kaluza-Klein type theory with the Standard Model fields localized on a 4-dimensional section while gravity propagates in a full 4 + δ-dimensional space-time, we examine a mechanism of naturally small neutrino mass generation through couplings of the Standard Model singlet fermion(s) living also in the full space-time. A numerical study is carried out on the charged current universality constraint from the ratio of pion decay partial widths. The bounds obtained on the fundamental mass scale could be stringent.

INTRODUCTION Interests in Kaluza-Klein (KK) type theories with extra space-time dimensions has re- cently been revived with an odd twist — the usual Standard Model (SM) fields with its chiral fermionic content are assumed to be localized on a 4-dimensional section. With only gravity propagating in the full 4 + δ-dimensional space-time, the extra dimensions could be “large”, with a fundamental mass scale M? as low as a TeV [1,2]. The scenario seems to promise rich phenomenological features, which has been the subject of many recent studies [3]. However, present collider bounds on M? are typically in the TeV range, while it has been shown that astrophysical and cosmological processes provide much stronger bounds [2,4], rendering collider phenomenology uninteresting. For δ = 2, the best bound is about 150 TeV; while it is about 30 TeV for δ = 3. As collider experiments are unlikely to yield in- formation on the feasibility of the specific KK scenario, it would be interesting to have other probes into the extra dimensions. Here in th
