Black Composite M-branes

We generalise all the known supersymmetric composite M-branes to the corresponding black configurations. Thermodynamical formulae is written by using the simple rules to construct these black branes.

Composite M-branes

We present new supersymmetric solutions of D=11 supergravity obtained by intersecting the brane configuration interpreted as a 2-brane lying within a 5-brane. Some of these solutions can be boosted along a common string and/or superposed with a Kaluza-Klein monopole. We also present a new embedding of the extreme four dimensional dyonic black hole with finite horizon area. These solutions are a consequence of a rather simple set of rules that allow us to construct the composite M-branes.

Kaluza-Klein electrically charged black branes in M-theory

We present a class of Kaluza-Klein electrically charged black p-brane solutions of ten-dimensional, type IIA superstring theory. Uplifting to eleven dimensions these solutions are studied in the context of M-theory. They can be interpreted either as a p+1 extended object trapped around the eleventh dimension along which momentum is flowing or as a boost of the following backgrounds: the Schwarzschild black (p+1)-brane or the product of the (10-p)-dimensional Euclidean Schwarzschild manifold with the (p+1)-dimensional Minkowski spacetime.
