We derive fully covariant expressions for all two-point scattering amplitudes of two massless closed strings from a Dirichlet $p$-brane. This construction relies on the observation that there is a simple relation between these D-brane amplitudes...

By explicit calculation, we show that the expansion of the disk level S-matrix element of one RR field, two open string tachyons and one gauge field that has been recently found corresponds to the derivative expansion of the Wess-Zumino action of D-brane-anti-D-brane...

We examine the proposal for constructing the effective action of a D-brane-anti-D-brane system from the non-abelian extension of tachyon DBI action. We consider two prescriptions for the trace in the non-abelian tachyon DBI action. The usual trace...

Recently, it has been observed that in a T-duality invariant world-volume theory in at spacetime, all orders of gauge field strength and all orders of the D-brane velocity appear in two specific matrices. Using these two matrices, we construct...

Using the compatibility of the DBI and the Chern-Simons actions with the T-duality transformations, the curvature corrections to these actions have been recently extended to include the quadratic B-field couplings at ...

We show that the on-shell S-matrix elements of four open string massless scalars, two scalars and two tachyons, and four open string tachyons in the super string theory can be written in a unique form. We then propose an ...

We calculate the disk level S-matrix element of one Ramond-Ramond, two gauge fields and one tachyon vertex operators in the world volume of non-BPS branes. We then find the momentum expansion of this amplitude and show ...

Abstract: Recently, it has been found that there are couplings of the RR field strength

F(p) and the B-field strength H on the world volume of Dp-branes at order O(α′2). These

couplings which have both ...

The effective action for the low energy scattering of two gravitons with a D-brane in the presence of a constant antisytmetric $B$ field in bosonic string theory is calculated and the modification to the standard D-brane action to first order...

background fields and verify that they correspond to D$p$-brane bound state. Also, from the scattering amplitudes, we calculate the linear coupling of closed string fields to D-brane world-volume and show that they are consistent with Born-Infeld and Chern...
