String Gases and the Swampland
  In this paper, we study some aspects of moduli stabilization using string
gases in the context of the Swampland. In the framework which we derive, the
matter Lagrangian for string gases yields a potential for the size moduli which
satisfies the de Sitter conjecture with the condition $\frac{|\nabla V|}{V}
\geq \frac{1}{\sqrt{p}}\frac{1}{M_p}$, where $p$ is the number of compactified
dimensions. Moreover, the moduli find themselves stabilized at the self-dual
radius, and gravity naturally emerges as the weakest force.
