摘要
As a step toward constructing realistic brane world models in string theory, we consider the interactions of a pair of non-BPS branes. We construct a dyonic generalization of the non-BPS branes first constructed by Bergman, Gaberdiel and Sen as orbifolds of D-branes on T-4/Z(2). The force between a dyonic brane and an electric brane is computed and is found to vanish at a non-trivial critical separation. This equilibrium point is unstable. For smaller separations the branes coalesce to form a composite dyonic state, while for larger separations the branes run off to infinity. We suggest generalizations that will lead to potentials with stable local minima. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
