Formation of Black Holes from Collapsed Cosmic String Loops

R. R. Caldwell, Paul Casper

The fraction of cosmic string loops which collapse to form black holes is estimated using a set of realistic loops generated by loop fragmentation. The smallest radius sphere into…

GRAVITATIONAL RADIATION FROM REALISTIC COSMIC STRING LOOPS

Paul Casper, Bruce Allen

We examine the rates at which energy and momentum are radiated into gravitational waves by a large set of realistic cosmic string loops. The string loops are generated by numerical…

Closed Form Expression for the Momentum Radiated from Cosmic String Loops

Bruce Allen, Paul Casper, Adrian Ottewill

We modify the recent analytic formula given by Allen and Casper for the rate at which piecewise linear cosmic string loops lose energy to gravitational radiation to yield the analo…

Analytic Results for the Gravitational Radiation from a Class of Cosmic String Loops

Bruce Allen, Paul Casper, Adrian Ottewill

Cosmic string loops are defined by a pair of periodic functions and , which trace out unit-length closed curves in three-dimensional space. We consider a particu…

A Closed-Form Expression for the Gravitational Radiation Rate from Cosmic Strings

Bruce Allen, Paul Casper

We present a new formula for the rate at which cosmic strings lose energy into gravitational radiation, valid for all piecewise-linear cosmic string loops. At any time, such a loop…
