Scientific paper

The formation of galaxies, clusters, and superclusters is discussed in the cosmic string model and the constraints are given for the corresponding loops which form these structures by the accretion of the loops. The alignment of position angles of galaxies with that of their parent cluster and of clusters with that of the supercluster which they lie in, appears natural. Various different observations and statistical results of position angles are (at least qualitatively) explained in the cosmic string theory of formation of the large-scale structure.
