Tachyon Condensation in Rotated Brane Configurations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-11-19 v3

Abstract

The decay of rotated brane configurations and the corresponding condensation of tachyons is discussed. In a certain IIB orbifold case a heuristic argument about the mass of the state living on the fixed plane is made. When the rotation angle is π\pi this mass agrees with that obtained by Sen.
