Idea

The D25 is the space-filling D-brane in open bosonic string theory.

The decay of the D25 is exhibited by the tachyon of the perturbative bosonic string, described by Sen's conjecture.

For the moment see the pointers at bosonic string field theory in the sections achievements and at references – Tachyon dynamics, decaying D-branes and Sen’s conjecture.
