Formation and evolution of kinky vortons
Richard A. Battye, Jonathan A. Pearson, Simon Pike +1
We present field theory simulations of a model with Z_2xU(1) symmetry in (2+1)-dimensions. This model has two discrete vacua, allowing for domain walls, and also a conserved Noethe…

Stability and the equation of state for kinky vortons
Richard Battye, Paul Sutcliffe
Vortons are closed loops of superconducting strings carrying current and charge. A formalism has been developed to study vortons in terms of an elastic string approximation, but it…
