Description
Heterotic orbifolds have shown recently a great potential to reproduce many aspects and solve some open issues of the MSSM. However, drawing particular predictions from these stringy constructions requires solving an additional matter: moduli stabilization. In this talk, we shall discuss recent efforts in tackling this longstanding problem and potential prospects.
