Quantum Stabilization of Cosmic Strings
H. Weigel, M. Quandt, N. Graham
In the standard model, stabilization of a classically unstable cosmic string may occur through the quantum fluctuations of a heavy fermion doublet. We review numerical results from…

Coulomb vs. physical string tension on the lattice
G. Burgio, M. Quandt, H. Reinhardt +1
From continuum studies it is known that the Coulomb string tension gives an upper bound for the physical (Wilson) string tension [D. Zwanziger, Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 102…
