Particle Growth and BPS Saturated States

preprint1995arXivOpen access

Abstract

Consistency of the Bekenstein bound on entropy requires the physical dimensions of particles to grow with momentum as the particle is boosted to transplanckian energies. In this paper the problem of particle growth in heterotic string theory is mapped into a problem involving the properties of BPS saturated black holes as the charge is increased. Explicit calculation based on the black hole solutions of Sen are shown to lead to a growth pattern consistent with the holographic speculation described in earlier work.
