By looking at fractional Dp-branes of type IIA on T_4/Z_2 as wrapped branes and by using boundary state techniques we construct the effective low-energy action for the fields generated by fractional branes, build their world-volume action and find the corresponding classical geometry. The explicit form of the classical background is consistent only outside an enhancon sphere of radius r_e, which encloses a naked singularity of repulson-type. The perturbative running of the gauge coupling constant, dictated by the NS-NS twisted field that keeps its one-loop expression at any distance, also fails at r_e.

  1. Dressed D-strings with Instability and Transverse Rotation: The Open String Pair Production

    hep-th 2025-05 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    Open string pair production between two rotating D-strings occurs only for rational frequency ratios and, after the tachyon is quenched, toroidal compactification enhances the rate.
