Tachyonic Kink and Lump-like Solutions in Superstring Field Theory
arXiv:hep-th/0104230 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2001/05/035
Abstract
We construct a kink solution on a non-BPS D-brane using Berkovits' formulation of superstring field theory in the level truncation scheme. The tension of the kink reproduces 95% of the expected BPS D-brane tension. We also find a lump-like solution which is interpreted as a kink--antikink pair, and investigate some of its properties. These results may be considered as successful tests of Berkovits' superstring field theory combined with the modified level truncation scheme.
