Twisting Classical Solutions in Heterotic String Theory
Abstract
We show that, given a classical solution of the heterotic string theory which is independent of of the space time directions, and for which the gauge field configuration lies in a subgroup that commutes with of the generators of the gauge group, there is an transformation, which, acting on the solution, generates new classical solutions of the theory. With the help of these transformations we construct black 6-brane solutions in ten dimensional heterotic string theory carrying independent magnetic, electric and antisymmetric tensor gauge field charge, by starting from a black 6-brane solution that carries magnetic charge but no electric or antisymmetric tensor gauge field charge. The electric and the magnetic charges point in different directions in the gauge group.
