Non-relativistic Branes

چکیده
We construct gravitational non-relativistic brane solutions of type IIA/IIB string theories and M-theory and their near-horizon geometries. The non-relativistic M2 and M5-brane metrics have Schrödinger symmetries with dynamical exponent ν = 1/2 and ν = 2, respectively, whereas the known D3-brane solution has ν = 1. The non-relativisitic D-brane, NS5-brane, F-string and KK monopole metrics have asymptotically space and time translations, space rotations, Galilean symmetries and a particle number symmetry. We construct two different gravitational backgrounds of a non-relativistic D1-D5 system, both having asymptotically Schrödinger symmetry with exponent ν = 1. We study the properties of the solutions and their phase diagram.

Non-Relativistic AdS Branes and Newton-Hooke Superalgebra
We examine a non-relativistic limit of D-branes in AdS5×S and M-branes in AdS4/7×S. First, Newton-Hooke superalgebras for the AdS branes are derived from AdS×S superalgebras as Inönü-Wigner contractions. It is shown that the directions along which the AdS-brane worldvolume extends are restricted by requiring that the isometry on the AdS-brane worldvolume and the Lorentz symmetry in the transver...
متن کاملNon-relativistic Theories from Euclidean Stable and Unstable Dp-Branes
In this paper we continue the study of non-relativistic p+1 dimensional theories that we started at arXiv:0904.1343. We extend the analysis presented there to the case of stable and unstable Dp-branes.
متن کاملRelativistic Brane Scattering
We calculate relativistic phase-shifts resulting from the large impact parameter scattering of 0-branes off p-branes within supergravity. Their full functional dependence on velocity agrees with that obtained by identifying the p-branes with D-branes in string theory. These processes are also described by 0-brane quantum mechanics, but only in the non-relativistic limit. We show that an improve...
متن کاملD - Brane Chemistry
We study several different kinds of bound states built from D-branes and orientifolds. These states are to atoms what branonium – the bound state of a brane and its anti-brane – is to positronium, inasmuch as they typically involve a light brane bound to a much heavier object with conserved charges which forbid the system's decay. We find the fully relativistic motion of a probe Dp ′-brane in t...

The cosmology in the Hubble expansion era of the Horava-Witten M-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold is studied in the reduction to five-dimensions where the effects of the Calabi-Yau man-ifold are summarized by the volume modulus, and all perturbative potentials are included. Matter on the branes are treated as first order perturbations of the static vacuum solution, and all equation...
