D3-Branes Wrapped on a Spindle

We construct supersymmetric $AdS_3\times Σ$ solutions of minimal gauged supergravity in $D=5$, where $Σ$ is a two-dimensional orbifold known as a spindle. Remarkably, these uplift on $S^5$, or more generally on any regular Sasaki-Einstein manifold, to smooth solutions of type IIB supergravity. The solutions are dual to $d=2$, $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ SCFTs …
