Cosmology of B-L cosmic strings
R. Jeannerot
cosmic strings form in a wide class of theories beyond the Standard Model which contain a gauge symmetry. They can form at the end of hybrid…
Grand unified models and cosmology
Rachel Jeannerot
The cosmological consequences of particle physics grand unified theories (GUTs) are studied. Cosmological models are implemented in realistic particle physics models. Models consis…
Enlarging the parameter space of standard hybrid inflation
Rachel Jeannerot, Marieke Postma
We show that the parameter space for F-term inflation which predict the formation of cosmic strings is larger than previously estimated. Firstly, because realistic embeddings in GU…
GUT cosmic strings and inflation
Rachel Jeannerot
We show that GUT cosmic strings generically form after inflation if a {\it non-inert} symmetry breaks after inflation; they form irrespectively of the inflationary scenario and in…
