Gravitational waves from cosmic strings with friction: analytical approximations and parameter space
Sergei Mukovnikov, Lara Sousa
We derive analytical approximations to describe the ultra-high-frequency secondary peak of the stochastic gravitational wave background generated by cosmic strings that is sourced…
A velocity-dependent two-scale model for cosmic string networks with small-scale structure
Teresa O. Miranda, Lara Sousa
We develop a semi-analytical model to describe the cosmological evolution of networks of cosmic strings with small-scale structure, by extending the velocity-dependent one-scale mo…
Cosmic strings and domain walls: the impact of CMB -mode data
Luca Caloni, Ricardo Z. Ferreira, Lara Sousa +1
We analyse CMB constraints on stable networks of cosmic strings and domain walls using for the first time full Planck 2018 data together with BICEP/Keck 2018 -mode measurements.…
Gravitational waves from cosmic strings in LISA: reconstruction pipeline and physics interpretation
Jose J. Blanco-Pillado, Yanou Cui, Sachiko Kuroyanagi +6
We initiate the LISA template databank for stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds sourced by cosmic strings. We include two templates, an analytical template, which enables more…
Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies generated by cosmic strings with small-scale structure
Rodrigo P. Silva, Lara Sousa, Ivan Yu. Rybak
We study the impact of kinks on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies generated by cosmic string networks. To do so, we extend the Unconnected Segment Model to describ…
