The Stability of Branonium
arXiv:hep-th/0312110 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.70.083518
Abstract
We analyse the orbital motion of a light anti D6-brane in the presence of a stack of heavy, distant D6-branes in ten dimensions, taking account of possible time-variations in the background moduli fields. The Coulomb-like central potential arising through brane-antibrane interactions is then modified to include time-dependent prefactors, which generally preclude the existence of stable elliptical orbits.
