Cosmic Strings and Topological Defects
In this review article, we point out spontaneous symmetry breaking is closely related to the emergence of the topological defects. Basic definitions and dynamics of the domain walls are introduced in the second section. Finally, we worked out an example of the spherical domain wall by using semi-classical approach.
متن کاملFermionic Zero Modes of Supergravity Cosmic Strings
Recent developments in string theory suggest that cosmic strings could be formed at the end of brane inflation. Supergravity provides a realistic model to study the properties of strings arising in brane inflation. Whilst the properties of cosmic strings in flat space-time have been extensively studied there are significant complications in the presence of gravity. We study the effects of gravi...
متن کاملDestruction of Fermion Zero Modes on Cosmic Strings
We examine the existence of zero energy fermion solutions (zero modes) on cosmic strings in an SO(10) grand unified theory. The current carrying capability of a cosmic string formed at one phase transition can be modified at subsequent phase transitions. We show that the zero modes may be destroyed and the conductivity of the string altered. We discuss the cosmological implications of this, and...
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...
