Abstract
A bstract We construct a new class of supersymmetric AdS 3 × Y 7 solutions of type IIB supergravity, where Y 7 is an S 5 fibration over a spindle, which are dual to d = 2, $$ \mathcal{N} $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>N</mml:mi> </mml:math> = (0 , 2) SCFTs. The solutions are constructed in a sub-truncation of D = 5, SO(6) maximal gauged supergravity and they all lie within the anti-twist class. We show that the central charge computed from the gravity solutions agrees with an anomaly polynomial calculation associated with compactifying the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>N</mml:mi> </mml:math> = 1, d = 4 Leigh-Strassler SCFT on a spindle.
