Abstract
We construct supersymmetric solutions of minimal gauged supergravity in , where is a two-dimensional orbifold known as a spindle. Remarkably, these uplift on , or more generally on any regular Sasaki-Einstein manifold, to smooth solutions of type IIB supergravity. The solutions are dual to , SCFTs and we show that the central charge for the gravity solution agrees with a field theory calculation associated with D3-branes wrapped on . Unlike for smooth the superconformal R-symmetry mixes with the isometry of the spindle.
