Supersymmetric D2 anti-D2 Strings

چکیده
We consider the flat supersymmetric D2 and anti-D2 system, which follows from ordinary noncommutative D2 anti-D2 branes by turning on an appropriate worldvolume electric field describing dissolved fundamental strings. We study the strings stretched between D2 and anti-D2 branes and show explicitly that the would-be tachyonic states become massless. We compute the string spectrum and clarify the induced noncommutativity on the worldvolume. The results are compared with the matrix theory description of the worldvolume gauge theories.

Supertubes connecting D4 branes
We find and explore a class of dyonic instanton solutions which can be identified as the supertubes connecting two D4 branes. They correspond to a single monopole string and a pair of monopole-antimonopole strings from the worldvolume view point of D4 branes. 1 Introduction Recently there has been a considerable study of the so called supertube solutions. Originally Mateos and Townsend construc...
متن کاملTubular Solutions in NS5-brane, Dp-brane and Macroscopic Strings Backgrounds
We present our searches for the tubular bound states of a D2-brane with m D0-branes and n fundamental strings in the NS5-brane, Dp-brane or macroscopic strings background by solving the Dirac-Born-Infeld equation. The geometry of tubular configurations we considered are taken to be parallel to the background branes or macroscopic strings. The n fundamental strings therein may be the circular st...

متن کاملElliptic supertube and a Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield D2-brane–anti-D2-brane Pair
An exact solution, in which a D2-brane and an anti-D2-brane are connected by an elliptically tubular D2-brane, is obtained without any junction condition. The solution is shown to preserve one quarter of the supersymmetries of the type-IIA Minkowski vacuum. We show that the configuration cannot be obtained by “blowing-up” from some inhomogeneously D0-charged superstrings. The BPS bound tells us...
متن کاملRemarks on non-BPS D-branes
Following Sen’s discovery of various stable non-BPS D-branes, K-theory has been shown to be the appropriate mathematical framework for classifying conserved D-brane charges. The classification accounts for known D-branes and predicts some new ones including a D8-brane in type I superstring theory. After briefly reviewing these developments, we discuss certain issues pertaining to the D8brane, w...
