Fluxbranes in String Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

A flux p-brane in D dimensions has (p+1)-dimensional Poincare invariance and a nonzero rank (D-p-1) field strength tangent to the transverse dimensions. We find a family of such solutions in string theory and M-theory and investigate their properties.
