Stable non-BPS bound states of BPS D-branes

S-duality symmetry of type IIB string theory predicts the existence of a stable non-BPS state on an orbifold five plane of the type IIB theory if the orbifold group is generated by the simultaneous action of (-1)FL and the reversal of sign of the four coordinates transverse to the orbifold plane. We calculate the mass of this state by starting from a pair of D-strings carrying the same charge as this state, and then identifying the point in the moduli space where this pair develops a tachyonic mode, signalling the appearance of a bound state of this configuration into the non-BPS state
