Tachyon Condensation and Black Strings | | Gary T. Horowitz
; | | Date: |
21 Jun 2005 | | Journal: | JHEP 0508 (2005) 091 | | Subject: | hep-th gr-qc | | Abstract: | We show that under certain conditions, closed string tachyon condensation produces a topology changing transition from black strings to Kaluza-Klein "bubbles of nothing." This can occur when the curvature at the horizon is much smaller than the string scale, so the black string is far from the correspondence point when it would make a transition to an excited fundamental string. This provides a dramatic new endpoint to Hawking evaporation. A similar transition occurs for black p-branes, and can be viewed as a nonextremal version of a geometric transition. Applications to AdS black holes and the AdS soliton are also discussed. | | Source: | arXiv, hep-th/0506166 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
