Abstract
Q-ball configuration that represents oscillating or spinning closed membrane is constructed via M(atrix) theory. Upon gravitational collapse Q-balls are expected to form Schwarzschild black holes. For quasi-static spherical membrane, we probe spacetime geometry induced by monopole moment via D0-parton scattering off the Q-ball. We find a complete agreement with long distance potential calculated using eleven-dimensional supergravity. Generalizing to heterotic M(atrix) theory, we also construct Q-ball configurations of real projective and disk membranes. The latter Q-ball configuration arises as twisted sector of heterotic M(atrix) theory, hence, are expected to form a charged black hole after gravitational collapse.
