An action for supergravity interacting with super-p-brane sources

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

We describe the coupled system of supergravity and a superbrane source by the sum of the group manifold action for D--dimensional supergravity and the action for a super--pp--brane. We derive the generalized Einstein equation with the source and discuss the local fermionic symmetries of the coupled action. Our scheme could be especially relevant in D=11,10D=11, 10, in which the superfield actions for supergravity are not known.
