Towards the low energy effective degrees of freedom in N=2 SUSY   theories: branes and integrability
  We discuss the brane interpretation of the integrable dynamics behind the exact solution to the N=2 SUSY YM theory. Degrees of freedom in the first integrable system responsible for the spectral Riemann surfaces comes from the hidden Higgs branch of the moduli space. The second integrable system of the Whitham type yields the dynamics on the Coulomb branch and can be considered as the scattering of branes.
