Abstract
We study top quark Kaluza-Klein (KK) mode mixing in the Randall-Sundrum scenario with all the SM fermions and gauge bosons in the bulk. Even though the simple assumption of a universal bulk fermion mass leads to the same KK mass spectrum for all SM fermions and thus suppresses new contributions to the flavor changing neutral current and the parameter, the large Yukawa coupling of the top quark generates mixing among its KK modes and breaks the degeneracy: An unacceptably large contribution to occurs. In order to satisfy the constraint, we relax the model by assigning a different bulk fermion mass to the SU(2) singlet bottom quark and demonstrate that there exists some limited parameter space where the constraint is satisfied. It is also shown that the current measurement of can be accommodated in this modified model, and the one sigma level precision constrains the effective weak scale such as for where is the warp-suppressed curvature.
