Non-supersymmetric heterotic branes
Abstract
The common statement that any consistent quantum gravity theory contains dynamical objects with all possible charges suggests that there are still a number of hitherto-unidentified branes in string theory. Here we give the exact worldsheet description of near-horizon limits of non-supersymmetric p-branes in ten-dimensional Spin(32)/Z2 or (E8 × E8) Z2 heterotic superstring theories for p=7,6,4,0.
