Probing a D6 + D0 state with D6-branes: SYM - Supergravity correspondence at subleading level

TL;DR

This paper investigates a non-supersymmetric D6 + D0 brane state using D6-branes, demonstrating agreement between supergravity and super Yang-Mills theories at subleading order for long-distance, low-velocity interactions.

Contribution

It provides the first detailed comparison of supergravity and super Yang-Mills descriptions for a non-supersymmetric D-brane configuration at subleading order.

Findings

Supergravity and super Yang-Mills results agree at subleading order.

Agreement holds for long-distance, low-velocity interactions.

The study extends the gauge/gravity correspondence to non-supersymmetric states.

Abstract

We probe a non-supersymmetric D6 + D0 state with D6-branes and find agreement at subleading order between the supergravity and super Yang-Mills description of the long-distance, low-velocity interaction.
