Abstract
The decay of rotated brane configurations and the corresponding condensatio n of tachyons is discussed. In a certain IIB orbifold case a heuristic argu ment about the mass of the state living on the fixed plane is made. When th e rotation angle is pi this mass agrees with that obtained by Sen.
