Supergravity Description of Non-BPS Branes

arXiv:hep-th/0005242 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.63.064008

Abstract

We construct supergravity solutions that correspond to N Dp-branes coinciding with \bar{N} \bar{Dp}-branes. We study the physical properties of the solutions and analyse the supergravity description of tachyon condensation. We construct an interpolation between the brane-antibrane solution and the Schwarzschild solution and discuss its possible application to the study of non-supersymmetric black holes.
