Abstract

The M-theory interpretation of certain D=10 IIA p-branes implies the existence of worldvolume Kaluza-Klein modes which are expected to appear as 0-brane/p-brane bound states preserving 1/4 of the spacetime supersymmetry. We construct the corresponding solutions of the effective supergravity theory for p=1,4, and show that no such solution exists for p=8.
