Zipping and unzipping of cosmic string loops in collision
Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and Cosmology, 2009•APS
In this paper the collision of two cosmic string loops is studied. After collision junctions are
formed and the loops are entangled. We show that after their formation the junctions start to
unzip and the loops disentangle. This analysis provides a theoretical understanding of the
unzipping effect observed in numerical simulations of a network of cosmic strings with more
than one type of cosmic strings. The unzipping phenomena have important effects in the
evolution of cosmic string networks when junctions are formed upon collision, such as in a …

This analysis provides a theoretical understanding of the unzipping effect observed in numerical simulations of a network of cosmic strings with more than one type of cosmic strings. The unzipping phenomena have important effects in the evolution of cosmic string networks when junctions are formed upon collision, such as in a network of cosmic superstrings.
