Nonsupersymmetric smooth geometries and D1-D5-P bound states

Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, Volume 71, No. 12, Article 124030, Year 2005

We construct smooth nonsupersymmetric soliton solutions with D1-brane, D5-brane, and momentum charges in type IIB supergravity compactified on T4×S1, with the charges along the compact directions. This generalizes previous studies of smooth supersymmetric solutions. The solutions are obtained by considering a known family of U(1)×U(1) invariant metrics, and studying the conditions imposed by requiring smoothness. We discuss the relation of our solutions to states in the CFT describing the D1-D5 system and describe various interesting features of the geometry. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
