TL;DR
This paper proposes a new six-dimensional (1,0) supersymmetric theory with E_8 symmetry, derived from a large n limit of D-string and D-fivebrane interactions in Type I string theory.
Contribution
It introduces a novel formulation of six-dimensional theories with E_8 symmetry based on matrix theory of D-branes.
Findings

Framework for studying instantons in E_8 gauge theories
Abstract
A formulation of new six-dimensional theories with (1,0) supersymmetry and E_8 global symmetry is proposed. The model is based on the large n theory describing n D-strings interacting with parallel D-fivebranes in Type I string theory.
