Black Hole Solutions in String Theory
Abstract
Description
We present two-parameter solutions of the low-energy four-dimensional heterotic string which in the extremal limit reduce to supersymmetric monopole, string and domain wall solutions. The effective scalar coupling to the Maxwell field, $e^{-αϕ} F_{μν} F^{μν}$, gives rise to a new string black hole with $α= \sqrt{3}$, in contrast to the pure dilaton black hole solution which has $α=1$. Implications of string/fivebrane duality in $D=10$ to four-dimensional dualities are discussed.
