Abstract
The M-theory interpretation of certain D = 10 IIA p-branes implies the existence of worldvolume Kaluza-Klein modes which are expected to app ear as O-brane/p-brane bound states preserving 1/4 of the spacetime su persymmetry. We construct the corresponding solutions of the effective supergravity theory for p = 1,4, and show that no such solution exist s for p = 8.
