We show that the leading order solution describing an extremal electrically charged black hole in string theory is, in fact, an exact solution to all orders in $\a'$ when interpreted in a Kaluza-Klein fashion. This follows from the…

The scattering of a straight, infinitely long string moving with velocity $v$ by a black hole is considered. We analyze the weak-field case, where the impact parameter ($b_{imp}$) is large, and obtain exact solutions to the equations of…
The statistical entropy of a Schwarzschild black string in five dimensions is obtained by counting the black string states which form a representation of the near-horizon conformal symmetry with a central charge. The statistical entropy of…
We consider scattering and capture of circular cosmic strings by a Schwarzschild black hole. Although being a priori a very simple axially symmetric two-body problem, it shows all the features of chaotic scattering. In particular, it…
When we vary the moduli of a compactification it may become entropically favourable at some point for a state of branes and strings to rearrange itself into a new configuration. We observe that for the elementary string with two large…
Utilising the master equation with source for perturbations of the Schwarzschild-Tangherlini solution, we construct perturbative solutions representing a black hole accelerated by a string in higher dimensions. We show that such solutions…
We solve the problem of mixing between the fixed scalar and metric fluctuations. First, we derive the decoupled fixed scalar equation for the four-dimensional black hole with two different charges. We proceed to the five-dimensional black…
