Stability of non-topological string in supersymmetric $SU(2)\times U(1)$ gauge theory

Abstract

We construct a non-topological string solution for a supersymmetric gauge theory with $SU(2)\times U(1)$ gauge symmetry which is spontaneously broken to $U(1)$ by developing the vacuum expectation value of two doublet Higgses. It is a supersymmetric extension of the electroweak string while supersymmetry is unbroken. We discuss the classical stability of the non-topological string by perturbations. We show that the classical stability are determined only by two parameters, and that the allowed region becomes essentially the same as in the electroweak string.
