Abstract

It has been suggested that the observed value of the cosmological constant is related to the supersymmetry breaking scale Msusy through the formula Lambda Mp4 (Msusy/Mp)8. We point out that a similar relation naturally arises in the codimension two solutions of warped space-time varying compactifications of string theory in which non-isotropic stringy moduli induce a small but positive cosmological constant.
