Thermodynamic Partition Function of Matrix Superstrings

Abstract

We show that, in the limit of zero string coupling, $g_s\to 0$, the thermodynamic partition function of matrix string theory is identical to that of the finite temperature, discrete light-cone quantised (DLCQ) type IIA superstring. We discuss how the superstring is recovered in the decompactified $R^{+}\to \infty$ limit.
