Abstract

We give the explicit expression for four-dimensional rotating charged black hole solutions of N=4 (or N=8) superstring vacua, parameterized by the ADM mass, four charges (two electric and two magnetic charges, each arising from a different U(1) gauge factors), and the angular momentum (as well as the asymptotic values of four toroidal moduli of two-torus and the dilaton-axion field). The explicit form of the thermodynamic entropy is parameterized in a suggestive way as a sum of the product of the `left-moving' and the `right-moving' terms, which may have an interpretation in terms of the microscopic degrees of freedom of the corresponding D-brane configuration. We also give an analogous parameterization of the thermodynamic entropy for the recently obtained five-dimensional rotating charged black holes parameterized by the ADM mass, three U(1) charges and two rotational parameters (as well as the asymptotic values of one toroidal modulus and the dilaton).
