Entropy of N=2 black holes and their M-brane description
- Humboldt-Universitaet, Institut fuer Physik, Invalidenstrasse 110, 10115 Berlin (Germany)
In this paper we discuss the M-brane description for an N=2 black hole. This solution is a result of the compactification of M-5-brane configurations over a Calabi-Yau threefold with arbitrary intersection numbers C{sub ABC}. In analogy with the D-brane description where one counts open string states we count here open M-2-branes which end on the M-5-brane. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
