Abstract

Strings on AdS(3) x S-3 x T-4 with mixed Ramond-Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-Schwarz flux are known to be classically integrable. This is a crucial property of this model, which cannot be studied by conventional worldsheet-CFT techniques. Integrability should carry over to the quantum level, and the worldsheet S matrix in the lightcone gauge is known up to the so-called dressing factors. In this work we study the kinematics of mixed-flux theories and consider a relativistic limit of the S matrix whereby we can complete the bootstrap program, including the dressing factors for fundamental particles and bound states. This provides an important test for the dressing factors of the full worldsheet model, and offers new insights on the features of the model when the amount of NSNS flux is low.
