Non-conformal branes wrapped on a disk

Abstract

We classify the disk solutions which are obtained from the spindle solutions from non-conformal D$p$-branes recently constructed by Boisvert and Ferrero. Then we study the global geometry of the disk solutions. We discover several common features of disk solutions, $e.g.$, monopoles and smeared branes, in most cases, but there are also exceptions.
