Does the tachyon matter?

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...
