Description

We describe a family of solutions of the heterotic string effective action to first order in alpha prime. At lowest order, these solutions correspond to well known 4 and 5 dimensional black holes and, with our results, their first order corrections can be found and studied explicitly for the first time in the literature. We show how non-Abelian instantones can reduce or eliminate these corrections.
