We construct Spin(p+1,p+1) covariant Dp-brane bound states by using that the potentials in the RR sector of toroidically compactified type II supergravity transform as a chiral spinor of the T-duality group. As an application, we show the…
Using the boundary state formalism we study rotating and moving D$p$-branes in the presence of the following background fields: Kalb-Ramond, $U(1)$ gauge potential and the tachyon field. The rotation and motion are in the brane volumes. The…

There is a close relation between classical supergravity and quantum SYM descriptions of interactions between separated branes. In the case of D3 branes, the equivalence of leading-order potentials is due to non-renormalization of the F^4…
We calculate the spin dependent static force between two D0-branes in Matrix theory. Supersymmetry relates velocity dependent potentials to spin dependent potentials. The well known v^4/r^7 term is related to a theta^8/r^11 term, where…
We study the behavior of D-branes at distances far shorter than the string length scale~$l_s$. We argue that short-distance phenomena are described by the IR behavior of the D-brane world-volume quantum theory. This description is valid…
We compute the boundary state corresponding to a fractional D$p$-brane with transverse motion and internal background fields: Kalb-Ramond and a $U(1)$ gauge field. The spacetime has the orbifold structure $\mathbb{R}^{1,5}…
We discuss long-distance, low-velocity interaction potentials for processes involving longitudinally boosted M5-brane (corresponding in type IIA theory language to the 1/4 supersymmetric bound state of 4-brane and 0-brane). We consider the…
The long-range, spin-dependent forces between D0-branes are related to long-range fundamental string interactions using duality. These interactions can then be computed by taking the long distance non-relativistic expansion of string…
The potential describing long-range interactions between D0-branes contains spin-dependent terms. In the matrix model, these should be reproduced by the one-loop effective action computed in the presence of a nontrivial fermionic background…
We give a basic account of supersymmetric open strings and D-branes using the Green-Schwarz formalism, obtaining a manifestly spacetime supersymmetric description of their spectrum. In addition we discuss a mechanism whereby some of the…
In this article, we investigate zero-modes for a dynamical (rotating-moving) D$p$-brane, coupled to the electromagnetic and tachyonic background fields. This work is done by the boundary state methods, in three cases of bosonic and…
