Abstract

We explicitly construct a family of N=4{\cal N}=4 superconformal mechanics of dyonic particles, generalizing the work of Anninos et al.\,\cite{Anninos:2013nra} to an arbitrary number of particles. These mechanics are obtained from a scaling limit of the effective Coulomb branch description of N=4{\mathcal N}=4 quiver quantum mechanics describing D-branes in type II Calabi-Yau compactifications. In the supergravity description of these D-branes this limit changes the asymptotics to AdS2×_2\times S2×^2\timesCY3_3. We exhibit the D(1,2;0)D(1,2;0) superconformal symmetry and conserved charges of the mechanics in detail. In addition we present an alternative formulation as a sigma model on a hyperk\"ahler manifold with torsion.
