Little strings, long strings, and fuzzballs [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
At high energy densities, fivebranes are populated by a Hagedorn phase of so- called little strings, whose statistical mechanics underlies black fivebrane thermodynamics. A particular limit of this phase yields BTZ black holes in AdS 3, leading us to the

Long string scattering in c = 1 string theory [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We study the scattering of long strings in c = 1 string theory, both in the worldsheet description and in the non-singlet sector of the dual matrix quantum mechanics. From the worldsheet perspective, the scattering amplitudes of long strings are obtained

Long strings and quasinormal winding modes

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We compute the path integral for a particle on the covering group of SL(2, ℝ) using a decomposition of the Lie algebra into adjoint orbits. We thus intuitively derive the Hilbert space of the particle on the group including discrete and continuous ...

Baryogenesis from Long Cosmic Strings [PDF]

Physics Letters B, 1994
Based on the mechanism of cusp production on long cosmic strings, the baryon asymmetry caused by cusp annihilation has been calculated. The result is compatible with observation and stronger than the results from loops.Comment: 7 pages, Latex, (ISTPM ...

Holographic Duals of Long Open Strings [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2008
We study the holographic map between long open strings, which stretch between D-branes separated in the bulk space-time, and operators in the dual boundary theory.

Effective Field Theory for Long Strings [PDF]

Proceedings of Xth Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum — PoS(Confinement X), 2013
In previous work we used magnetic SU(N) gauge theory with adjoint representation Higgs scalars to describe the long distance quark-antiquark interaction in pure Yang-Mills theory, and later to obtain an effective string theory. The empirically determined

Observing Long Cosmic Strings Through Gravitational Lensing

Physical Review D, 1997
We consider the gravitational lensing produced by long cosmic strings formed in a GUT scale phase transition. We derive a formula for the deflection of photons which pass near the strings that reduces to an integral over the light cone projection of the ...

The action of long strings in supersymmetric field theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Long strings emerge in many Quantum Field Theories, for example as vortices in Abelian Higgs theories, or flux tubes in Yang-Mills theories. The actions of such objects can be expanded in the number of derivatives, around a long straight string solution.

Towards non-AdS holography via the long string phenomenon [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
The microscopic description of AdS space obeys the holographic principle in the sense that the number of microscopic degrees of freedom is given by the area of the holographic boundary.

Deriving the long-string CFT in AdS3

Journal of High Energy Physics
We revisit the path integral formulation of bosonic string theory in locally-AdS3 spacetimes. Through a careful analysis of the worldsheet sigma model, we write down an effective theory of long strings living near the boundary of AdS3.
