Cosmic strings in Bekenstein-type models
J. Menezes, P. P. Avelino, C. Santos
We study static cosmic string solutions in the context of Bekenstein-type models. We show that there is a class of models of this type for which the classical Nielsen-Olesen vortex…

The cluster abundance in cosmic string models for structure formation
P. P. Avelino, J. H. P. Wu, E. P. S. Shellard
We use the present observed number density of large X-ray clusters to constrain the amplitude of matter density perturbations induced by cosmic strings on the scale of Mp…

Cosmic string loops and large-scale structure
P. P. Avelino, E. P. S. Shellard, J. H. P. Wu +1
We investigate the contribution made by small loops from a cosmic string network as seeds for large-scale structure formation. We show that cosmic string loops are highly correlate…
