NS Fivebrane and Tachyon Condensation

Debashis Ghoshal, Dileep P. Jatkar, Maximilian Kreuzer

We argue that a semi-infinite D6-brane ending on an NS5-brane can be obtained from the condensation of the tachyon on the unstable D9-brane of type IIA theory. The construction use…

Deformations of the Schwarzschild Black Hole

D. Grumiller

Due to its large number of symmetries the Schwarzschild Black Hole can be described by a specific two-dimensional dilaton gravity model. After reviewing classical, semi-classical a…

Tunable Fano Resonances in Transport through Microwave Billiards

S. Rotter, F. Libisch, J. Burgdörfer +2

We present a tunable microwave scattering device that allows the controlled variation of Fano line shape parameters in transmission through quantum billiards. Transport in this dev…

Cyclicity of non-associative products on D-branes

M. Herbst, A. Kling, M. Kreuzer

The non-commutative geometry of deformation quantization appears in string theory through the effect of a B-field background on the dynamics of D-branes in the topological limit. F…

The ultrarelativistic limit of 2D dilaton gravity and its energy momentum tensor

H. Balasin, D. Grumiller

The ultrarelativistic limit of twodimensional dilaton gravity is presented and its associated (anti-)selfdual energy momentum tensor is derived. It is localized on a null line, alt…

Eleven spherically symmetric constant density solutions with cosmological constant

Christian G. Boehmer

Einstein's field equations with cosmological constant are analysed for a static, spherically symmetric perfect fluid having constant density. Five new global solutions are describe…
