In particular, we have found that there is exact consistency between field theory and string theory tachyon pole of S-matrix element of one RR and three tachyons provided that one takes into account the fact that the tachyon vertex operator in 0 picture to be along the Pauli matrix $σ_1$ whereas the tachyon in -1 picture to be along the $σ_2$ direction. This internal CP factors should be included in the tachyon DBI part of the effective action.26 pages, latex file; V5: a missing term in the modified tachyon DBI action addedHigh Energy Physics - TheoryOn effective actions of non-BPS branes and their higher derivative correctionstext
