Conformal Field Theory Couplings for Intersecting D-branes on Orientifolds
Abstract We present a conformal field theory calculation of four-point and three-point correlation functions for the bosonic twist fields arising at the intersections of D-branes wrapping (supersymmetric) homology cycles of Type II orientifold compactifications. Both the quantum contribution from local excitations at the intersections and the world-sheet disk instanton corrections are computed....
متن کاملGravitational Couplings for Ygop-planes
The results that this paper presents is about gravitational couplings for y deformed and generalized orientifold planes (yGOp-planes) . The usual orientifold planes do not have gauge fields on their worldvolumes and do no have any kind of topological y-deformation over their worldvolumes . The y deformed and generalized orientifold planes that this paper consider have SO(2k) Yang-Mills gauge fi...
متن کاملGravitational couplings of orientifold planes
We reanalyse the gravitational couplings of the perturbative orientifold planes Op, Op (and D-branes). We first compute their D−1 instantonic corrections for p = 3. Then, by using U-dualities, we obtain the Wess-Zumino terms of orientifolds with RR flux for p ≤ 5. The expressions for the effective actions can be partially checked via M-theory. We point out a previous oversimplification and we s...
متن کاملGauge and gravitational anomalies in D = 4 N = 1 orientifolds
The cancellation of U(1)-gauge and U(1)-gravitational anomalies in certain D = 4 N = 1 Type IIB orientifolds is analyzed in detail, from a string theory point of view. We verify the proposal that these anomalies are cancelled by a Green-Schwarz mechanism involving only twisted Ramond-Ramond fields. By factorizing one-loop partition functions, we also get the anomalous couplings of D-branes, O-p...
متن کاملGravitational Couplings of Intrinsic Spin
The gravitational couplings of intrinsic spin are briefly reviewed. A consequence of the Dirac equation in the exterior gravitational field of a rotating mass is considered in detail, namely, the difference in the energy of a spin12 particle polarized vertically up and down near the surface of a rotating body is h̄Ω sin θ. Here θ is the latitude and Ω = 2GJ/(cR), where J and R are, respectively,...
