Abstract

Unlike BPS pp-brane, non-supersymmetric (non-susy) pp-brane could be either charged or chargeless. As envisaged in [hep-th/0503007], we construct an intersecting non-susy pp-brane with chargeless non-susy qq-brane by taking T-dualities along the delocalized directions of the non-susy qq-brane solution delocalized in (pq)(p-q) transverse directions (where pqp\geq q). In general these solutions are characterized by four independent parameters. We show that when q=0q=0 the intersecting charged as well as chargeless non-susy pp-brane with chargeless 0-brane can be mapped by a coordinate transformation to black pp-brane when two of the four parameters characterizing the solution take some special values. For definiteness we restrict our discussion to space-time dimensions d=10d=10. We observe that parameters characterizing the black brane and the related dynamics are in general in a different branch of the parameter space from those describing the brane-antibrane annihilation process. We demonstrate this in the two examples, namely, the non-susy D0-brane and the intersecting non-susy D4 and D0-branes, where the solutions with the explicit microscopic descriptions are known.
