The Heterotic Life of the D-particle | Ulf H. Danielsson

11 Oct 1996 | Journal: | Int.J.Mod.Phys. A12 (1997) 4581-4596 | Subject: | hep-th | Abstract: | We study the dynamics of D-particles (D0-branes) in type I’ string theory and of the corresponding states in the dual heterotic description. We account for the presence of the two 8-orientifolds (8 dimensional orientifold planes) and sixteen D8-branes by deriving the appropriate quantum mechanical system. We recover the familiar condition of eight D8-branes for each 8-orientifold. We investigate bound states and compute the phase shifts for the scattering of such states and find that they agree with the expectations from the supergravity action. In the type I’ regime we study the motion transverse to the 8-orientifold and find an interesting cancellation effect. | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/9610082 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
