Intersecting branes in pp-wave spacetime

Abstract

We derive intersecting brane solutions in pp-wave spacetime by solving the supergravity field equations explicitly. The general intersection rules are presented. We also generalize the construction to the non-extremal solutions. Both the extremal and non-extremal solutions presented here are asymptotic to BFHP plane waves. We find that these solutions do not have regular horizons.
