First order framework for vortices in generalized Maxwell-Chern-Simons models without a neutral field

Abstract

This work introduces a procedure to obtain vortex configurations described by first order equations in generalized Maxwell-Chern-Simons models without the inclusion of a neutral field. The results show that the novel methodology is capable of inducing important modification in the vortex core, leading to vortex configurations with unconventional features.
