Brane-like solutions and other non-supersymmetric vacua
J. Mourad, Salvatore Raucci, Augusto Sagnotti
Abstract
A bstract After recasting the standard charged and uncharged brane profiles in the harmonic gauge, we explore solutions with the same isometries where the potentials V = T e γ ϕ of ten-dimensional non-supersymmetric strings are taken into account. Combining a detailed catalog of the possible asymptotics with some numerical results suggests that these spherically symmetric backgrounds terminate at singularities within finite proper distances.
