Could Electromagnetic Corrections Solve The Vorton Excess Problem ?

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v1 Astrophysics

Abstract

The modifications of circular cosmic string loop dynamics due to the electromagnetic self-interaction are calculated and shown to reduce the available phase space for reaching classical vorton states, thereby decreasing their remnant abundance. Use is made of the duality between master-function and Lagrangian formalisms on an explicit model.
