Scaling of cosmological domain wall networks with junctions
P. P. Avelino, C. J. A. P. Martins, J. Menezes +2
We describe the results of the largest and most accurate three-dimensional field theory simulations of domain wall networks with junctions. We consider a previously introduced clas…
Defect Junctions and Domain Wall Dynamics
P. P. Avelino, C. J. A. P. Martins, J. Menezes +2
We study a number of domain wall forming models where various types of defect junctions can exist. These illustrate some of the mechanisms that will determine the evolution of defe…
Frustrated Expectations: Defect Networks and Dark Energy
P. P. Avelino, C. J. A. P. Martins, J. Menezes +2
We discuss necessary conditions for a network of cosmic domain walls to have a chance of providing the dark energy that might explain the recent acceleration of the universe. We de…
