  • 1. Newcastle upon Tyne Univ. (UK). Dept. of Physics

Description

The one-loop vacuum energy of a free D-dimensional non-critical bosonic string compactified on various tori is calculated. Modular invariance of the one-loop vacuum energy is shown for any D. For a one-dimensional torus, the Hagedorn temperature is found. (orig.)
