A note on T5Z2 compactification of the M-theory matrix model

We study the T5Z2 orbifold compactification of the M-theory matrix model. This model was originally studied by Dasgupta, Mukhi, and Witten. It was found that one had to add 16 5-branes to the system to make th compactification consistent. We demonstrate how this is mimicked in the matrix model.
