Strings after D-term inflation: evolution and properties of chiral cosmic strings
arXiv:astro-ph/0010295 · doi:10.1063/1.1363555
Abstract
We motivate the study of chiral cosmic strings through a scenario of structure formation which mixes D-term inflation and strings. We then discuss some properties of chiral cosmic strings, and results regarding their evolution and possible cosmological consequences are presented.
