Comments on Unstable Branes

Ken Intriligator, Matt Kleban, Jason Kumar

We argue that type II string theories contain unstable NS4 branes, which descend from a conjectured unstable M4 brane of M-theory. Assuming that an M2 brane can arise in M5 brane/a…

Examples of stationary BPS solutions in N=2 supergravity theories with R^2-interactions

G. L. Cardoso, B. de Wit, J. Käppeli +1

We discuss explicit examples of BPS solutions in four-dimensional N=2 supergravity with R^2-interactions. We demonstrate how to construct solutions by iteration. Generically, the p…

Microcantilever Studies of Angular Field Dependence of Vortex Dynamics in BSCCO

J. Chiaverini, K. Yasumura, A. Kapitulnik

Using a nanogram-sized single crystal of BSCCO attached to a microcantilever we demonstrate in a direct way that in magnetic fields nearly parallel to the {\it ab} plane the magnet…

Triggered single photons from a quantum dot

Charles Santori, Matthew Pelton, Glenn Solomon +2

We demonstrate a new method for generating triggered single photons. After a laser pulse generates excitons inside of a single quantum dot, electrostatic interactions between them…

Security of Quantum Key Distribution with Entangled Photons Against Individual Attacks

Edo Waks, Assaf Zeevi, Yoshihisa Yamamoto

Security of the Ekert protocol is proven against individual attacks where an eavesdropper is allowed to share any density matrix with the two communicating parties. The density mat…

Bosonic M Theory

Gary T. Horowitz, Leonard Susskind

We conjecture that there exists a strong coupling limit of bosonic string theory which is related to the 26 dimensional theory in the same way that 11 dimensional M theory is relat…
