Abstract

We analyse four-dimensional, supersymmetric intersecting D-brane models in a toroidal orientifold background from a statistical perspective. The distribution and correlation of observables, like gauge groups and couplings, are discussed. We focus on models with a Standard Model-like gauge sector, derive frequency distributions for their occurence and analyse the properties of the hidden sector.
