Cosmic Strings and Quintessence
We present a new Lorentz gauge invariant U(1) topological field theory in Riemann-Cartan spacetime manifold U4. By virtue of the decomposition theory of U(1) gauge potential and the φ–mapping topological current theory, it is proved that the U(1) complex scalar field φ(x) can be looked upon as the order parameter field in our Universe, and the set of zero points of φ(x) create the cosmic string...
متن کاملCosmic Concordance and Quintessence
We present a comprehensive study of the observational constraints on spatially flat cosmological models containing a mixture of matter and quintessence — a time varying, spatially inhomogeneous component of the energy density of the universe with negative pressure. Our study also includes the limiting case of a cosmological constant. We classify the observational constraints by red shift: low r...
متن کاملCosmic Strings and Cosmic Supertrings
In these lectures, I review the current status of cosmic strings and cosmic superstrings. I first discuss topological defects in the context of Grand Unified Theories, focusing in particular in cosmic strings arising as gauge theory solitons. I discuss the reconciliation between cosmic strings and cosmological inflation, I review cosmic strings dynamics, cosmic string thermodynamics and cosmic ...
متن کاملCosmic Strings & Cosmic Variance
By using a simple analytical model based on counting random multiple impulses inflicted on photons by a network of cosmic strings we show how to construct the general q-point temperature correlation function of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Our analysis is sensible specially for large angular scales where the Kaiser-Stebbins effect is dominant. Then we concentrate our study on the ...
متن کاملCosmic Strings
Cosmic strings, a hot subject in the 1980’s and early 1990’s, lost its appeal when it was found that it leads to inconsistencies in the power spectrum of the measured cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropies. However, topological defects in general, and cosmic strings in particular, are deeply rooted in the framework of grand unified theories. Indeed, it was shown that cosmic string...
