Threshold effects in open-string theory

نویسنده

چکیده

We analyze the one-loop effective gauge-field action in Z2-orbifold compactifications of type-I theory. We show how, for non-abelian group factors, the threshold effects are ultraviolet finite though given entirely by a sixdimensional field theory expression.

DEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY

The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...

Gauge couplings in four - dimensional Type I string orbifolds

We compute threshold effects to gauge couplings in four-dimensional Z N orientifold models of type I strings with N = 2 and N = 1 supersymmetry, and study their dependence on the geometric moduli. We also compute the tree-level (disk) couplings of the open sector gauge fields to the twisted closed string moduli of the orbifold in various models and study their effects and that of the one-loop t...

One-loop Effective Action in Open-string Theory

This is a summary of the analysis of the one-loop effective action in Z2-orbifold compactifications of type-I theory presented in references [1,2]. We show how, for non-abelian group factors, the threshold effects are ultraviolet finite though given entirely by a six-dimensional field theory expression. We also discuss implications for the equivalence between Type-I and Heterotic four dimension...

String thresholds and Renormalisation Group Evolution

We consider the calculation of threshold effects due to Kaluza Klein and winding modes in string theory. We show that for a large radius of compactification these effects may be approximated by an effective field theory applicable below the string cut-off scale. Using this formalism we show that the radiative contribution to gauge couplings involving only massive Kaluza Klein and winding modes ...

Strange quark matter attached to string cloud in general scalar tensor theory of gravitation

Bianchi type-VI0 space time with strange quark matter attached to string cloud in Nordtvedt [1] general scalar tensor theory of gravitation with the help of a special case proposed by Schwinger [2] is obtained. The field equations have been solved by using the anisotropy feature of the universe in the Bianchi type-VI0 space time. Some important features of the model, thus obtained, have been di...
