Aspects of D-brane dynamics on orbifolds

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v1

Abstract

We discuss D-brane dynamics in orbifold compactifications of type II superstring theory. We compute the interaction potential between two D-branes moving with constant velocities and give a field theory interpretation of it in the large distance limit.
