Massive Superstrings Are Black Holes

چکیده

We argue that it is inconsistent to ignore the gravitational backreaction for on-shell superstring states at the Planck mass and beyond, and that these quantum states become Kerr black holes in the classical limit. Consequences are discussed.

Massive String States as Extreme Black Holes

We consider the Schwarz-Sen spectrum of elementary electrically charged massive NR = 1/2 states of the four-dimensional heterotic string and show the maximum spin 1 supermultiplets to correspond to extreme black hole solutions. The NL = 1 states and NL > 1 states (with vanishing left-moving internal momentum) admit a single scalar-Maxwell description with parameters a = √ 3 or a = 1, respective...

Spherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory

In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...

Black holes with a null Killing vector in new massive gravity in three dimensions

We investigate solutions of new massive gravity with two commuting Killing vectors, one of which is null, with a special emphasis on black hole solutions. Besides extreme BTZ black holes and, for a special value of the coupling constant, massless null warped black holes, we also obtain for a critical coupling a family of massive “log” black holes. These are asymptotic to the extreme BTZ black h...

Introduction to M-theory for Relativists and Cosmologists * )

We review the recent developments in superstrings. We start with a brief summary of various consistent superstring theories and discuss T-duality which necessarily leads to the presence of D-branes. The properties of D-branes are summarized and we discuss how these suggest the existence of 11-dimensional quantum theory, M-theory, which is believed to give rise to various superstrings as perturb...
