Abstract

We extend the investigation of nonextremal enhançons, finding the most general solutions with the correct symmetry and charges. There are two families of solutions. One of these contains a solution with a regular horizon found previously; this previous example is shown to be the unique solution with a regular horizon. The other family generalizes a previous nonextreme extension of the enhançon, producing solutions with shells that satisfy the weak energy condition. We argue that identifying a unique solution with a shell requires input beyond supergravity.
