We generalize our study of the tachyon condensation on the brane-antibranesystem [hep-th/0403147] to the intersecting brane-antibrane system. Thesupergravity solutions of the intersecting brane-antibrane system arecharacterized by five parameters. We relate these parameters to the microscopicphysical parameters, namely, the number of D$p$-branes ($N_1$), the number of${\bar {\rm D}}p$-branes (${\bar N}_1$), the number of D$(p-4)$-branes ($N_2)$,the number of ${\bar{\rm D}}(p-4)$-branes (${\bar N}_2$) and the tachyon vev$T$. We show that the solution and the ADM mass capture all the requiredproperties and give a correct description of the tachyon condensation for theintersecting brane-antibrane system.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX, v2: typos correcte
