Core Phase Structure of Cosmic Strings and Monopoles

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

Global and local symmetries may or may not be restored inside topological defects depending upon the values of the parameters of the model. A detailed study of this parameter dependence of the core structure of strings and monopoles is presented in the context of simple models.
