We prove that self-dual gauge fields in type I superstring theory are equivalent to configurations of Dirichlet 5-branes, by showing that the world-sheet theory of a Dirichlet 1-brane moving in a background of 5-branes includes an "ADHh4 sigma model". This provides an explicit construction of the eq

## Abstract These lecture notes review some modern developments in open string field theory. We begin with a discussion of the physical motivations and general framework of open SFT. We then briefly introduce and contrast the two basic formalisms, Boundary SFT and cubic SFT, and summarize the main
## Abstract We overview the main configurations of Dβbrane probes in the __AdS__^5^ Γ __X__^5^ background of type IIB string theory (__X__^5^ being a SasakiβEinstein manifold), and examine their most salient features from the point of view of the dual quiver superconformal field theory.
