Fermionic current-carrying cosmic strings: zero-temperature limit and equation of state
P. Peter, C. Ringeval
The equation of state for a superconducting cosmic string whose current is due to fermionic zero modes is derived analytically in the case where the back-reaction of the fermions t…

Current-carrying string loop motion: Limits on the classical description and shocks
X. Martin, P. Peter
The dynamical evolution of superconducting cosmic strings is much more complicated than that of simple Goto-Nambu strings. For this reason, there are only a few known analytical so…
