Type I string theory provides eight classes of unstable D-brane systems. We determine the gauge group and tachyon spectrum for each one, and thereby describe the gauge symmetry breaking pattern in the low-energy world-volume field theory. The topologies of the resulting coset vacuum manifolds are related to the real K-theory groups KO^{-n}, extending the known relations between the Type II classifying spaces BU and U and the complex K-theory groups K^0 and K^{-1}. We also comment on the role of the background D9-branes.

Anomalies and D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park background
Stable D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park background are derived from world-sheet anomalies with boundary Majorana fermions, matching the known relative KR-theory classification and explaining its 4-fold periodicity.
