We consider a classical (string) field theory of $c=1$ matrix model which was developed earlier in hep-th/9207011 and subsequent papers. This is a noncommutative field theory where the noncommutativity parameter is the string coupling $g_s$. We construct a classical solution of this field theory and show that it describes the complete time history of the recently found rolling tachyon on an unstable D0 brane.

    Tachyon EFT near its minimum is mapped via collective field theory to a coherent-state subsector of Klein-Gordon theory, indicating quantum-level equivalence between open and closed string descriptions of unstable D-b...
