We present new rolling tachyon solutions describing the classical decay of D-branes. Our methods are simpler than those appearing in recent works, yet our results are exact in classical string theory. The role of pressure in the decay is…
We propose a field theory for describing the tachyon on a brane-antibrane system near the minimum of the potential. This field theory realizes two known properties of the tachyon effective action: 1) absence of plane-wave solutions around…
We study the mechanism of particle production in the world-volume of a probe anti D6-brane (or D6 with SUSY breaking) moving in the background created by a fixed stack of $D6$-branes. We show that this may occur in a regime of parametric…
We investigate the string field theory around the tachyon vacuum. A pure gauge form of the solution is constructed at the tachyon vacuum. For a special choice of the gauge function for the pure gauge form, marginal deformation from the…
