Dark energy and decompactification in string gas cosmology
Francesc Ferrer, Syksy Rasanen
We study the stability of extra dimensions in string gas cosmology at late times. Vacuum energy and, interestingly, baryons lead to decompactification after they become dynamically…

511 KeV photons from superconducting cosmic strings
Francesc Ferrer, Tanmay Vachaspati
We show that a tangle of light superconducting strings in the Milky Way could be the source of the observed 511 KeV emission from electron-positron annihilation in the Galactic bul…
