Tachyon Back Reaction on $d = 2$ String Black HoleDOI: 10.1016/0550-3213(93)90279-X Abstract: We describe a static solution for $d = 2$ critical string theory including the tachyon $T$ but with its potential $V (T)$ set to zero. This solution thus incorporates tachyon back reaction and, when $T = 0$, reduces to the black hole solution. When $T \neq 0$ we find that (1) the Schwarzschild horizon of the above black hole splits into two, resembling Reissner-Nordstrom horizons and (2) the curvature scalar develops new singularities at the horizons. We show that these features will persist even when $V (T)$ is nonzero. We present a time dependent extension of our static solution and discuss some possible methods for removing the above singularities.
