Constraints on Superconducting Cosmic Strings from the Global -cm Signal before Reionization
Robert Brandenberger, Bryce Cyr, Rui Shi
Electromagnetic radiation from the cusp region of superconducting cosmic strings leads to a radio excess in the photon spectrum in the early universe and can produce a deep absorpt…
On the Possible Enhancement of the Global -cm Signal at Reionization from the Decay of Cosmic String Cusps
Robert Brandenberger, Bryce Cyr, Timothée Schaeffer
We consider cosmic string cusp annihilations as a possible source of enhancement to the global background radiation temperature in -cm photons at reionization. A soft photon sp…
Fast Radio Bursts from the Decay of Cosmic String Cusps
Robert Brandenberger, Bryce Cyr, Aditya Varna Iyer
We explore the possibility that Fast Radio Bursts are due to the annihilation of cusps on cosmic string loops. We compute the energy released in the annihilation events in the radi…
