The former applies to light degrees of freedom below the threshold for five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein excitations, whereas the five-dimensional perspective is also valid up to the Calabi-Yau scale. We show how, in the latter case, two gauge sectors separated in the fifth dimension are combined to form a consistent four-dimensional supergravity. In the lowest order of the $\kappa^{2/3}$ expansion, we show how a four-dimensional supergravity with gauge kinetic function $f_{1,2}=S$ is reproduced, and we show how higher-order terms give rise to four-dimensional operators that differ in the two gauge sectors. In the four-dimensional approach, supersymmetry is seen to be broken when condensates form on one or both walls, and the goldstino may have a non-zero dilatino component. As in the five-dimensional approach, the Lagrangian is not a perfect square, and we have not identified a vacuum with broken supersymmetry and zero vacuum energy. We derive soft supersymmetry-breaking terms for non-standard perturbative embeddings, that are relevant in more general situations such as type I/type IIB orientifold models.

Ground motion and vibration, among other effects, will produce dynamic misalignments which can offset the beams at the collision point. A system of train-to-train and intra-train beam-beam feedbacks, possibly combined with additional beam-independent active systems, is planned to compensate for these effects. Extensive simulation studies of ground motion and luminosity stabilization have been performed as part of the work of the International Linear Collider Technical Review Committee [1]. This paper presents a comparison of the expected performance for TESLA, JLC/NLC and CLIC under various assumptions about feedbacks and the level of ground motion.
