Certain linear objects, termed physical lines, are considered, and initial assumptions concerning their properties are introduced. A physical line in the form of a circle is called a \emph{$J$-string}. It is assumed that a $J$-string has an…
Stationary rotating strings can be viewed as geodesic motions in appropriate metrics on a two-dimensional space. We obtain all solutions describing stationary rotating strings in flat spacetime as an application. These rotating strings have…
The metric around a wiggly cosmic string is calculated in the linear approximation of Brans-Dicke theory of gravitation. The equations of motion for relativistic and non-relativistic particles in this metric are obtained. Light propagation…
If a physical significance should be attributed to the cosmological large number relationship obtained from Sciama's formulation of Mach's Principle, then a number of interesting physical conclusions may be drawn. The Planck length is…
The properties of 5D gravitational flux tubes are considered. With the cross section and 5th dimension in the Planck region such tubes can be considered as string-like objects, namely $\Delta-$strings. A model of attachment of…
Using the Polchinski-Strominger effective string theory in covariant gauge, we compute the mass of a rotating string in D dimensions with large angular momenta J, in one or two planes, in fixed ratio, up to and including first subleading…
In a flat background, simple non-conducting string loops have no strictly stationary equilibrium states, but for cosmic string loops of superconducting kind such ``vorton'' states will exist, with rotating circular configurations…
In this work we consider determination of the basic Planck units (mass, length and charge) using two dynamical principles. First one is definition of the (reduced) Compton length of the physical system (which, as it is well-known, can be…
We calculate the gravitational potential energy between infinitely long parallel strings with tensions \tau_1 and \tau_2. Classically, it vanishes, but at one loop, we find that the long range gravitational potential energy per unit length…
In this paper we calculate the magnetic and electric self-forces, induced by the conical structure of a cosmic string space-time, on a long straight wire which presents either a constant current or a linear charge density. We also show how…
In the framework of QED we investigate the bremsstrahlung process for an electron passing by a straight static cosmic string. This process is precluded in empty Minkowski space-time by energy and momentum conservation laws. It happens in…
We evaluate the cross section for electron-positron pair production by a single high energy photon in the space-time of a static, straight cosmic string. Energy and momentum conservation precludes this process in empty Minkowski space. It…
We suggest that some of the remarkable results on stringy dynamics which have been found recently indicate the existence of another dynamical length scale in string theory that, at weak coupling, is much shorter than the string scale. This…
The discrete phase space continuous time representation of relativistic quantum mechanics involving a characteristic length $l$ is investigated. Fundamental physical constants such as $\hbar$, $c$, and $l$ are retained for most sections of…
The Planck units were originally derived from a dimensional analysis without a deeper understanding of their meaning. It was later believed that these units may provide a link between quantum theory and gravity in a yet to be developed…
We derived expressions for energy, momentum and angular momentum losses due to gravitational and electromagnetic radiation from the closed superconducting chiral cosmic strings of arbitrary form. The expressions for corresponding radiation…
Magnetic strings are defined as infinitely thin surfaces which are closed in the vacuum and can be open on an external monopole trajectory (that is, defined by 't Hooft loop). We review briefly lattice data on the magnetic strings which…
The Regge trajectories, upon which string theory is based, behave as rigid rotators rather than vibrating strings. The same relation, between the angular momentum, and the square of the mass, can be found in gravity, the electroweak, and…
We classify the possible shapes of cosmic string cusps and how they transform under Lorentz boosts. A generic cusp can be brought into a form in which the motion of the cusp tip lies in the plane of the cusp. The cusp whose motion is…
In this paper the mass of a universe, which began as a gravitationally closed, maximally spinning, Planck density quantum string is derived. A universe beginning in such an initial state has been called a Super Spin Model universe. The…
