Some Properties of Type I' String Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-11-23 v2

Abstract

The T-dual formulation of Type I superstring theory, sometimes called Type I' theory, has a number of interesting features. Here we review some of them including the role of D0-branes and D8-branes in controlling possible gauge symmetry enhancement.
