摘要: A discussion of the evolution and observable consequences a network cosmic strings is given. simple model for string presented, related to statistical mechanics networks. The predicts long density throughout history universe from single parameter, which researchers calculate in radiation era simulations. arguments indicate particular thermal form spectrum loops chopped off network. Detailed numerical simulations networks expanding backgrounds are performed test model. Consequences large scale structure, microwave gravity wave backgrounds, nucleosynthesis gravitational lensing calculated.
