A Note on Tachyons in the $D3+{\bar {D3}}$ System

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-10 v3

Abstract

The periodic bounce of Born-Infeld theory of D3D3-branes is derived, and the BPS limit of infinite period is discussed as an example of tachyon condensation. The explicit bounce solution to the Born--Infeld action is interpreted as an unstable fundamental string stretched between the brane and its antibrane.
