Description
We construct an M-theory dual of a 6 dimensional self-dual string theory with reduced supersymmetry, along the lines of Polchinski and Strassler. We find that upon perturbing the (2,0) theory with an R-current, the M5 branes polarize into a wrapped Kaluza Klein monopole, whose isometry direction is along the R-current. We investigate the properties of this theory. (author)
