Statistics of M theory vacua (2005)
Acharya, BS, Denef, Frederik; U0009261, Valandro, R
We study the vacuum statistics of ensembles of M theory compactifications on G(2) holonomy manifolds with fluxes, and of ensembles of Freund-Rubin vacua. We discuss similarities and differences...
A precision measurement of the mass of the top quark (2004)
Abazov, VM, Abbott, B, Abdesselam, A, Abolins, M, Abramov, V, Acharya, BS, ...
The standard model of particle physics contains parameters such as particle masses - whose origins are still unknown and which cannot be predicted, but whose values are constrained through their...
Combination of CDF and D0 results on the W boson mass and width (2004)
CDF Collaboration, Abazov, VM, Abbott, B, Abdesselam, A, Abolins, M, Abramov, V, ...
Branes at conical singularities and holography (1998)
Acharya, BS, Figueroa-O'Farrill, JM, Hull, CM, Spence, B
For supergavrity solutions which are the product of an anti-de Sitter space with an Einstein space X, we study the relation between the amount of supersymmetry preserved and the geometry of X....
Planes, branes and automorphisms: II. Branes in motion (1998)
Acharya, BS, Figueroa-O'Farrill, JM, Spence, B, Stanciu, S
We complete the classification of supersymmetric configurations of two M5-branes, started by Ohta and Townsend. The novel configurations not considered before are those in which the two branes are...
Planes, branes and automorphisms: I. Static branes (1998)
Acharya, BS, Figueroa-O'Farrill, JM, Spence, B
This is the first of a series of papers devoted to the group-theoretical analysis of the conditions which must be satisfied for a configuration of intersecting M5-branes to be supersymmetric. In this...
Branes at angles and calibrated geometry (1998)
Acharya, BS, Figueroa-O'Farrill, JM, Spence, B
In a recent paper, Ohta and Townsend studied the conditions which must be satisfied for a configuration of two intersecting M5-branes at angles to be supersymmetric. In this paper we extend this...
Euclidean D-branes and higher-dimensional gauge theory (1997)
Acharya, BS, Figueroa-O'Farrill, JM, O'Loughlin, M, Spence, B
We consider euclidean D-branes wrapping around manifolds of exceptional holonomy in dimensions seven and eight. The resulting theory on the D-brane---that is, the dimensional reduction of...
