I'm afraid I'm a little confused, partly by the terminology and phrasing. The "Kaluza-Klein reduction on spaces" I assume is referring to the compactified dimensions in standard string theory, but I'm not sure if you're including the extra-large dimensions as well. But the rest of the message only seems to make sense if all the dimensions are included, so I'll assume that's the case. Then my next question is: Are the "higher dimensional counterparts" the Standard Model particles? And finally, is the graviphoton kind of an extension of the ordinary graviton which mixes the extra dimension in with the space-time of our own universe, so a whole lot of energy is needed to create one?
