abstract = {We elucidate various aspects of the physics of thraxions,
ultra-light axions arising at Klebanov-Strassler
multi-throats in the compactification space of IIB
superstring theory. We study the combined stabilization of
Kähler moduli and thraxions, showing that under reasonable
assumptions, one can solve the combined problem both in a
KKLT and a LVS setup. We find that for non-minimal
multi-throats, the thraxion mass squared is three-times
suppressed by the throat warp factor. However, the minimal
case of a double-throat can preserve the six-times
suppression as originally found. We also discuss the
backreaction of a non-vanishing thraxion vacuum expectation
value on the geometry, showing that it induces a breaking of
the imaginary self-duality condition for 3-form fluxes. This
in turn breaks the Calabi-Yau structure to a complex
manifold one. Finally, we extensively search for global
models which can accommodate the presence of multiple
thraxions within the database of Complete Intersection
Calabi-Yau orientifolds. We find that each multi-throat
system holds a single thraxion. We further point out
difficulties in constructing a full-fledged global model,
due to the generic presence of frozen-conifold singularities
in a Calabi-Yau orientifold. For this reason, we propose a
new database of CICY orientifolds that do not have frozen
conifolds but that admit thraxions.},
