An Orientifold from F Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-08-18 v1

Abstract

The massless spectrum of an orientifold of the IIB string theory is computed and shown to be identical to F theory on the Calabi-Yau threefold with h11=51h_{11}=51 and h21=3h_{21}=3. Target space duality is also considered in this model.
