Strings and D-branes with boundaries

摘要

The covariant field equations of ten-dimensional super D-branes are obtained by considering fundamental strings whose ends lie in the superworldsurface of the D-brane. By considering in a similar fashion Dp-branes ending on D(p + 2)-branes we derive equations describing D-branes with dual potentials, as well as the vector potentials. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
