Non-Abelian Global Vortices
Minoru Eto, Eiji Nakano, Muneto Nitta
We study topologically stable non-Abelian global vortices in the U(N) linear sigma model. The profile functions of the solutions are numerically obtained. We investigate the behavi…
Colliders and Brane Vector Phenomenology
T. E. Clark, S. T. Love, Muneto Nitta +2
Brane world oscillations manifest themselves as massive vector gauge fields. Their coupling to the Standard Model is deduced using the method of nonlinear realizations of the spont…
Non-Abelian Global Strings at Chiral Phase Transition
Muneto Nitta, Noriko Shiiki
We construct non-Abelian global string solutions in the U(N)_L x U(N)_R linear sigma model. These strings are the most fundamental objects which are expected to form during the chi…
Interactions of Non-Abelian Global Strings
Eiji Nakano, Muneto Nitta, Taeko Matsuura
Non-Abelian global strings are expected to form during the chiral phase transition. They have orientational zero modes in the internal space, associated with the vector-like symmet…
Skyrme Strings
Muneto Nitta, Noriko Shiiki
We construct nontopological string solutions with U(1) Noether charge in the Skyrme model with a pion mass term, and examine their stability by taking linear perturbations. The sol…
