  Abstract:
We find a new class of spiky solutions for closed strings in flat, AdS3AdS5 and R×S2( ⊂ S5) backgrounds. In the flat case the new solutions turn out to be T-dual configurations of spiky strings found in []. In the case of solutions living in AdS, we make a semi classical analysis by taking the large angular momentum limit. The anomalous dimension for these dual spikes is similar to that for rotating and pulsating circular strings in AdS with angular momentum playing the role of the level number. This replaces the well known logarithmic dependence for spinning strings. For the dual spikes living on sphere we find that no large angular momentum limit exists.
