Scattering in the adjoint sector of the c = 1 Matrix Model

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-02-09 v1

Abstract

Closed string tachyon emission from a traveling long string in Liouville string theory is studied. The exact collective field Hamiltonian in the adjoint sector of the c=1 matrix model is computed to capture the interaction between the tip of the long string and the closed string tachyon field. The amplitude for emission of a single tachyon quantum is obtained in a closed form using the chiral formalism.
