We study the dynamics of the Nambu monopole in two Higgs doublet models, which is a magnetic monopole attached by two topological $Z$ strings ($Z$ flux tubes) from two opposite sides. The monopole is a topologically stable solution of the…

It is shown that all Polchinski-Strominger effective string theories are \emph{isospectral} to Nambu-Goto theory. The relevance of these results to QCD-Strings is discussed.
Since it has been pointed out that physics beyond the Standard Model may be constrained by gravitational waves from cosmic strings, it has been more important to clarify in what cases cosmic strings are formed. We study the stability of the…
