The Self-Dual String Soliton

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v2

Abstract

We obtain a BPS soliton of the M theory fivebrane's equations of motion representing a supersymmetric self-dual string. The resulting solution is then dimensionally reduced and used to obtain 0-brane and (p-2)-brane solitons on D-p-branes.
