Are p-Branes Asymptotically Black Holes?

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

An attempt is made to compare the asymptotic state density of twisted pp-branes and the related state density of mass level MM of a DD-dimensional neutral black hole. To this aim, the explicit form of the twisted pp-brane total level degeneracy is calculated. The prefactor of the degeneracy, in contrast to the leading behaviour, is found to depend on the winding number of the pp-brane.
