Open superstring partition function in constant gauge field background at finite temperature

Abstract

We find the general expression for the open superstring partition function on the annulus in a constant abelian gauge field background and at finite temperature. We use the approach based on Green-Schwarz string path integral in the light-cone gauge and compare it with NSR approach. We discuss the super Yang-Mills theory limit and mention some D-brane applications.
