Giant tachyons in the landscape
A bstract We study the dynamics of localized and fully backreacting anti-D3 branes at the tip
of the Klebanov-Strassler geometry. We use a non-supersymmetric version of the Polchinski …

Fatal attraction: more on decaying anti-branes
UH Danielsson, T Van Riet - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We elaborate on the decay of branes inside throat geometries that are supported
by flux carrying charges opposite to the brane. Our main point is that such back-grounds …

[HTML][HTML] The flaw in the firewall argument
SD Mathur, D Turton - Nuclear Physics B, 2014 - Elsevier
A lot of confusion surrounds the issue of black hole complementarity, because the question
has been considered without discussing the mechanism which guarantees unitarity …

Resolving anti-brane singularities through time-dependence
J Blåbäck, UH Danielsson, T Van Riet - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract In this note we discuss a possible resolution of the flux singularities associated with
the insertion of branes in backgrounds supported by fluxes that carry charges opposite to the …

The problematic backreaction of SUSY-breaking branes
J Blåbäck, UH Danielsson, D Junghans… - Journal of High Energy …, 2011 - Springer
In this paper we investigate the localisation of SUSY-breaking branes which, in the smeared
approximation, support specific non-BPS vacua. We show, for a wide class of boundary …
