The method of probe brane is the powerful one to obtain the effective action living on the probe brane from supergravity. We apply this method to the unstable brane systems, and understand the tachyon condensation in the context of the…
The tachyon condensation is studied in asymmetric D-anti D systems. Taking a system of two pairs of D5-anti D5 in type IIB superstring theory in the background of large N D5-branes, we show that one BPS D1-brane comes out after the…
There is a difficulty in defining the positions of the D-branes when the scalar fields on them are non-abelian. We show that we can use tachyon condensation to determine the position or the shape of D0-branes uniquely as a commutative…
In this short note we present a mathematical interpretation of tachyon condensation on (three dimensional) orbifolds within the framework of boundary string field theory (BSFT). We explicitly show that important parts of decay modes in…
