Tachyon condensation and ‘bounce’ in the D1–D5 system
Abstrak
Abstract We construct supergravity solutions dual to microstates of the D1–D3–D5 system with nonzero B field moduli. Just like the D1–D5 solutions in [ hep-th/0109154 ] these solutions are generically nonsingular everywhere, with the ‘throat’ closing smoothly near r=0. We write expressions relating the asymptotic supergravity fields to the integral brane charges. We study the infall of a D1 brane down the throat of the geometries. This test brane ‘bounces’ off the smooth end for generic initial conditions. The details of the bounce depend on both the choice of D1–D3–D5 microstate and the direction of approach of the infalling D1 brane. In the dual field theory description we see that the tachyon mode starts to condense, but the tachyon bounces back up the potential hill without reaching the deepest point of the potential.
