On matched asymptotic expansions of backreacting metastable anti-branes. (English) Zbl 1522.81393

Summary: We construct analytically a perturbative supergravity solution that captures the backreaction of a metastable state of anti-branes in the background of a particular modification of the Klebanov-Strassler throat in a long-wavelength approximation. Our solution, which has no unphysical singularities, describes how non-supersymmetric spherical NS5-branes with dissolved anti-D3 brane charge backreact in a fluxed throat geometry. It supports previous claims that there is a well-behaved supergravity description of the metastable state of wrapped NS5-branes proposed years ago by S.Kachru et al. [J. High Energy Phys. 2002, No. 6, Paper No. 021, 26 p. (2002; doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2002/06/021)].
