Spectra of Harmonic Oscillators with GUP and Extra Dimensions

Abstract

In this paper, we address the spectra of simple harmonic oscillators based on the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) with a Kaluza-Klein compactified extra dimension. We show that in this scenario, to make the results compatible with experiments, the minimal length scale equals to the radius of compact extra dimension.
