Allowing for the possibility of a non-vanishing dilaton potential of Casimir type, we demonstrate the possibility of obtaining a nonsingular, static tachyon condensate phase with fixed dilaton. The time reversal of our solution provides a candidate effective field theory description of a Hagedorn phase of string gas cosmology with fixed dilaton.7 pages, two references addedHigh Energy Physics - TheoryAstrophysicsGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyTowards A Nonsingular Tachyonic Big Crunchtext
