Does the tachyon matter?

Show other versions (1)

We study time-dependent solutions of Einstein-Maxwell gravity in four dimensions coupled to tachyon matter—the Dirac-Born-Infeld Lagrangian that provides an effective description of a decaying tachyon on an unstable D-brane in string theory. Asymptotically, the solutions are similar to the recently...

520 |a We study time-dependent solutions of Einstein-Maxwell gravity in four dimensions coupled to tachyon matter—the Dirac-Born-Infeld Lagrangian that provides an effective description of a decaying tachyon on an unstable D-brane in string theory. Asymptotically, the solutions are similar to the recently studied space-like brane solutions and carry S-brane charge. They do not break the Lorentzian R-symmetry. We study tachyon matter as a probe in such a background and analyze its backreaction. For early/late times, the tachyon field has a constant energy density and vanishing pressure as in flat space. On the other hand, at intermediate times, the energy density of the tachyon diverges and produces a space-like curvature singularity.
