Description

We found a gravity solution of a p+1 dimensional extended object with SO(p)xSO(9-p) symmetry which has zero pressure and zero dilaton charge. We expect that this object is a residual tachyon dust after tachyon condensation of the brane and antibrane system recently discussed by Sen. We also discuss the Hawking temperature and some properties of this object
