Probe D-branes in Superconformal Field Theories
arXiv:hep-th/0702005 · doi:10.1002/prop.200610377
Abstract
We overview the main configurations of D-brane probes in the AdS_5 x X^5 background of type IIB string theory (X^5 being a Sasaki-Einstein manifold), and examine their most salient features from the point of view of the dual quiver superconformal field theory.
