Recent studies by one of the present authors along with his collaborators in [1-4] show that there exist the so-called open string pair production for a possible simplest system of two Dp branes, placed parallel at a separation and with…
We here report a possibility of detecting the open string pair production from the system of a D3 brane, taken as our own (1 + 3)-dimensional world and carrying its worldvolume collinear electric and magnetic fluxes, and a nearby D-string,…
We consider the stringy interaction between two parallel stacks of D3 branes placed at a separation. Each stack of D3 branes in a similar fashion carry an electric flux and a magnetic flux with the two sharing no common field strength…
We study the open string pair production between two D3 branes, which will give rise to similar effect as Schwinger pair production for observers on one of the D3 branes. The D3 branes are placed parallel at a distance, and they are…
The experimental efforts in testing the QED vacuum properties such as the Schwinger pair production in the presence of a strong electric field have so far not been successful. This raises a potential possibility regarding if the usual QED…
We report a systematic study of the stringy interaction between two sets of Dp branes placed parallel at a separation in the presence of two worldvolume fluxes for each set. We focus in this paper on that the two fluxes on one set have the…
Why adding a collinear magnetic field to the electric one on a D3 brane in a system of two parallel separated D3 branes can enhance the open string pair production? How is the open string pair production rate related to the QED ones in the…
We extend the amplitude calculations of \cite{Lu:2009yx} to exhaust the remaining cases for which one set of D$_p$ branes carrying a flux (electric or magnetic) is placed parallel at separation to the other set carrying also a flux but with…
Consider a system consisting of D$p$ and D$p'$, placed parallel at a separation and with $p - p' = 2 n$ (assuming $p \ge p'$, the integer $n \ge 0$ and $p' > 0$). When either D$p$ or D$p'$ carries a worldvolume electric flux, one in general…
Motivated by the recent work \cite{Lu:2019ynq} by one of the present authors, we here report that there exist two new systems, namely, D3/(F, D1) and D3/(D3, (F, D1)), either of which can give rise to a much larger sizable open string pair…
We review two types of D-branes processes where open strings are created. In the first type, a closed string incident on a collection of D-branes is converted into a number of open strings running along them. For the case of threebranes we…
We explore various properties of interaction between D$_p$ and D$_{p'}$ with each carrying a worldvolume flux and with the $p'$-branes placed along $p'$ spatial worldvolume directions of the p-branes at a separation when $p - p' = 2$.…
Similar to the Schwinger effect in the quantum electrodynamics, a system of two parallel D-branes at a finite separation can produce open string pairs through their interaction. In this paper, we investigate this rate for the dressed…
We investigate the criterion, on the Born-Infeld background fields, for the open string pair creation to occur in D$p$-(anti-)D$p$-brane systems. Although the pair creation occurs generically in both D$p$-D$p$ and D$p$-anti-D$p$ systems for…
This paper addresses several unsettled issues associated with string creation in systems of orthogonal Dp-D(8-p) branes. The interaction between the branes can be understood either from the closed string or open string picture. In the…
We employ the boundary state formalism to compute the pair creation rate of the open superstrings from the interaction of two parallel D3-branes. The branes live in the partially compact spacetime. In addition, they have been dressed with…
We discuss a new class of brane models (extending both p-brane and Dp-brane cases) where the brane tension appears as an additional dynamical degree of freedom instead of being put in by hand as an ad hoc dimensionfull scale. Consistency of…
The dynamics of a Dp brane can be described either by an open string ending on this brane or by an open D(p - 2) brane ending on the same Dp brane. The ends of the open string couple to a Dp brane worldvolume gauge field while the boundary…
D-branes are fundamental in all scenarios where there are large extra dimensions and the string scale is much smaller than the four-dimensional Planck mass. We show that this current picture leads to a new approach to string cosmology where…
We compute the closed-string cylinder amplitude between one Dp brane and the other Dp$\prime$ brane, placed parallel at a separation, with each carrying a general constant worldvolume flux and with $p - p' = 0, 2, 4, 6$ and $p \le 6$. For…
