A discrete extra dimension of size 11.8 fm would imply the existence of vector X and scalar H bosons as photon’s Kaluza-Klein partners. The massive vector X can be identified with the particle X 17 suggested by ATOMKI’s experiment. The particle model of extended photon sector coupled to extended nucleon, electron and neutrino also implies the neutron decay to its Kaluza-Klein partner. There are several different channels triggered by X and H . In this paper ve compare the contribution from them and imply some physical consequences on the parameters of the model.
