Canadians provide new Einstein solutions
This sounds really interesting:
The new solutions may also add a better understanding of tachyons in String Theory. Tachyons correspond to unstable higher energy states in String Theory. Clarkson and Mann’s solutions are perturbatively the lowest-energy states in their asymptotic class, meaning that the two may have found what could possibly be the ground state for all solitons of this type. Maldecena and Lin conjecture that orbifold solutions in String Theory could decay into these soliton states as tachyons condense. The new Einstein solutions provide a look at how a string structure could connect manifolds of differing topology.
Just one question…anybody know what it means?
