Scientific paper

In modern theories of particle physics, an important consequence of phase transitions in the early universe is the formation of topological defects, that is domain walls, cosmic strings, monopoles or textures. These defects are essentially trapped fossils of a hot dense early phase of matter in the universe. They have well-known analogues in the low-temperature laboratory and in other contexts, i...
