BPS Black Holes in Supergravity
by Riccardo D'Auria, Pietro Fre'
Publisher: arXiv 2009
Number of pages: 132
Description:
In these lectures we explain the concept of supergravity p-branes and BPS black holes. The Lectures are meant to be introductory and self contained for non supersymmetry experts but at the same time fully detailed and complete on the subject.
