A note on non-commutative dynamics of spinning D0 branes
Duane Loh, Kit Rodolfa, Vatche Sahakian
Rotational dynamics is known to polarize D0 branes into higher dimensional fuzzy D-branes: the tension forces between D0 branes provide the centripetal acceleration, and a puffe…
Strings in Ramond-Ramond backgrounds
Vatche Sahakian
We write the type IIB worldsheet action in classes of bosonic curved backgrounds threaded with Ramond-Ramond fluxes. The fixing of the kappa symmetry in the light-cone gauge and th…
A note on the thermodynamics of `little string' theory
Emil Martinec, Vatche Sahakian
We study the thermodynamics of the D1-D5 system on a five-torus, focussing on the roles of different scales. One can take a decoupling limit such that the tension of the `little st…
On the Bound States of Matrix Strings
Vatche Sahakian
We investigate excitations in Matrix Theory on T^2 corresponding to bound states of strings. We demonstrate the Dirichlet aspect of R-R charged vacua through a non-trivial connecti…
