Open superstring partition function in constant gauge field background at finite temperature
arXiv:hep-th/9802133 · doi:10.1016/S0550-3213(98)00227-2
Abstract
We find the general expression for the open superstring partition function on the annulus in a constant abelian gauge field background and at finite temperature. We use the approach based on Green-Schwarz string path integral in the light-cone gauge and compare it with NSR approach. We discuss the super Yang-Mills theory limit and mention some D-brane applications.
