In

the existence of D9-branes is argued from BPS state considerations. The S-duality doublet 9-brane in type II string theory(p,q)(p,q)-9-brane” is mentioned in section 6.

The Green-Schwarz sigma-model description of (p,q)(p,q)-9-branes via cocycles on extended super Minkowski spacetimes is obtained in

Cohomological discussion (maybe mostly of M9-branes) is in
