Macroscopic String-like Solutions in Massive Supergravity
نویسنده
چکیده
In this report we obtain explicit string-like solutions of equations of motion of massive heterotic supergravity recently obtained by Bergshoeff, Roo and Eyras. We also find consistent string source which can be embedded in these backgrounds when space-time dimension is greater than or equal to six. 1 This work is supported by INFN fellowship e-mail: [email protected]

Massive Dualities in Six Dimensions
We study compactifications of string theory and M-theory to six dimensions with background fluxes. The nonzero fluxes lead to additional mass parameters. We derive the S– and T–duality rules for the corresponding (massive) supergravity theories. Specifically, we investigate the massive T-duality between Type IIA superstring theory compactified on K3 with background fluxes and Type IIB superstri...
متن کاملSL(2, Z) Multiplets of Type II Superstrings in D < 10
It has been shown recently that the toroidally compactified type IIB string effective action possesses an SL(2, R) invariance. Using this symmetry we construct an infinite family of macroscopic string-like solutions permuted by SL(2, Z) group for type II superstrings in 4 ≤ D < 10. These solutions, which formally look very similar to the corresponding solutions in D = 10, are characterized by t...
متن کاملFundamental Plasmid Strings and Black Rings
We construct excited states of fundamental strings that admit a semiclassical description as rotating circular loops of string. We identify them with the supergravity solutions for rotating dipole rings. The identification involves a precise match of the mass, radius and angular momentum of the two systems. Moreover, the degeneracy of the string state reproduces the parametric dependence of the...
متن کاملD0-D8-F1 in Massive IIA SUGRA
We present some new supersymmetric solutions of massive IIA supergravity involving D0-branes, a D8-brane and a string. For the bosonic fields we use a general ansatz with SO(8) symmetry.
متن کاملMacroscopic superstrings as interpolating solitons
It is known that, in string sigma-model metric, the 'extreme' fivebrane solution of D=10 supergravity interpolates between D=10 Minkowski spacetime and a supersym-metric S 3 compactification to a linear dilaton vacuum. We show here that, in fivebrane sigma-model metric, the extreme string solution of D=10 supergravity interpolates between Minkowski spacetime and a hitherto unknown supersymmetri...
