Microwave Background Constraints on Decaying Defects
Robert H. Brandenberger, Brandon Carter, Anne-Christine Davis
Embedded defects are predicted in a host of particle physics theories, in particular in the standard electroweak theory. They can be stabilized by interactions with the cosmologica…

Thermal Stabilisation of Superconducting Sigma Strings and their Drum Vortons
Brandon Carter, Robert H. Brandenberger, Anne-Christine Davis
We discuss various issues related to stabilized embedded strings in a thermal background. In particular, we demonstrate that such strings will generically become superconducting at…
