$Z_N$ Orientifolds with Flux
  We compute the flux induced tadpole and superpotential in various type IIB $Z_N$ compact orientifolds in order to study moduli stabilization. We find supersymmetric vacua with $g_s < 1$ and describe brane configurations with cancelled tadpoles. In some cases moduli are only partially fixed unless anti D3-branes are included.
