Type I/II Vortex Dynamics With Excited Normal Modes
Steffen Krusch, Morgan Rees, Thomas Winyard
We investigate the effects of excited normal modes on vortex dynamics in the Abelian Higgs model in the type I (static attraction) and type II (static repulsion) regimes. We demons…
Scattering of Vortices with Excited Normal Modes
Steffen Krusch, Morgan Rees, Thomas Winyard
We consider head-on collisions at critical coupling of vortices modelled by the Abelian-Higgs model. We investigate the 2-vortex scattering, whereby the vortices are excited by the…
The BPS sectors of the Skyrme model and their non-BPS extensions
C. Adam, D. Foster, S. Krusch +1
Two recently found coupled BPS submodels of the Skyrme model are further analyzed. Firstly, we provide a geometrical formulation of the submodels in terms of the eigenvalues of the…
Quantum lump dynamics on the two-sphere
S. Krusch, J. M. Speight
It is well known that the low-energy classical dynamics of solitons of Bogomol'nyi type is well approximated by geodesic motion in M_n, the moduli space of static n-solitons. There…
Fermionic quantization of Hopf solitons
Steffen Krusch, Martin Speight
In this paper we show how to quantize Hopf solitons using the Finkelstein-Rubinstein approach. Hopf solitons can be quantized as fermions if their Hopf charge is odd. Symmetries of…
