The New Charged Massless States of Quantum Electrodynamics
Quantum Electrodynamics can be formulated as the theory of an antisymmetric tensor gauge field. In this formulation the topologi-cal current of this field appears as an additional source for the electromagnetic field.The topological charge therefore acts physically as an electric charge. The topologically nontrivial, electrically charged, sector contains massless states orthogonal to the vacuum...
متن کاملMacroscopic Charged Heterotic String
Classical solutions of equations of motion in low energy effective field theory, describing fundamental charged heterotic string, are found. These solutions automatically carry an electric current equal to the charge per unit length, and hence are accompanied by both, electric and magnetic fields. Force between two parallel strings vanish due to cancellation between electric and magnetic forces...
متن کاملMassless BPS-Saturated States on the Two-Torus Moduli Sub-Space of Heterotic String
Within a four-dimensional, toroidally compactified heterotic string, we identify (quantized) charge vectors of electrically charged BPS-saturated states (along with the tower of SL(2, Z) related dyonic states), which preserve 1 2 of N = 4 supersymmetry and become massless along the hyper-surfaces of enhanced gauge symmetry of the two-torus moduli sub-space. In addition, we identify charge vecto...
متن کاملTowards the Massless Spectrum of Non-Kähler Heterotic Compactifications
Fu and Yau constructed the first smooth family of gauge bundles over a class of non-Kähler, complex 3-folds that are solutions to Strominger’s system, the heterotic supersymmetry constraints with nonzero H-flux. In this paper, we begin the study of the massless spectrum arising from compactification using this construction by counting zero modes of the linearized equations of motion for the gau...
متن کاملRadiation reaction for a massless charged particle
We derive effective equations of motion for a massless charged particle coupled to the dynamical electromagnetic field having regard to the radiation back reaction. It is shown that unlike the massive case not all the divergences resulting from the self-action of the particle are Lagrangian, i.e. can be canceled out by adding appropriate counterterms to the original action. Besides, the order o...
