An Orientifold of Type-IIB Theory on $K3$
  A new orientifold of Type-IIB theory on $K3$ is constructed that has $N=1$ supersymmetry in six dimensions. The orientifold symmetry consists of a $Z_2$ involution of $K3$ combined with orientation-reversal on the worldsheet. The closed-string sector in the resulting theory contains nine tensor multiplets and twelve neutral hypermultiplets in addition to the gravity multiplet, and is anomaly-free by itself. The open-string sector contains only 5-branes and gives rise to maximal gauge groups $SO(16)$ or $U(8)\times U(8)$ at different points in the moduli space. Anomalies are canceled by a generalization of the Green-Schwarz mechanism that involves more than one tensor multiplets.
