Abstract

We calculate the long-range interactions between two simple branes placed parallel at a separation in diverse dimensions via an effective field theory approach. We also compute the explicit long-range interaction between two D-branes with each carrying a world volume non-Abelian magnetic flux in three special cases, respectively. In particular, we demonstrate that the half-string creation between a D0-brane and a D8-brane continues to hold even in the present context, therefore lending further support to the previous assertion of this. Our computations also raise the issue in one case on whether a constructed (D0,D8) bound state is actually a marginal one.
