Abstract
We present a manifestly Lorentz invariant, spacetime supersymmetric, and `-invariant' worldvolume action for all type II Dirichlet p-branes, , in a general type II supergravity background, including massive backgrounds in the IIA case. The cases are rederived from D=11. The case provides a supersymmetrization of the D=10 Born-Infeld action.
