A Note on the Transverse Five-Brane in M(atrix) Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v2

Abstract

We describe a way to compute scattering amplitudes in M(atrix) quantum mechanics, that involve the transverse five-brane. We then compute certain scattering processes and show that they have the expected SO(5) invariance, give the correct transverse-five-brane mass, and agree with the supergravity result.
