Zipping and unzipping in string networks: dynamics of Y-junctions
We study, within the Nambu-Goto approximation, the stability of massive string junctions under the influence of the tensions of three strings joining together in a Y-type configuration. The relative angle β between the strings at the junction is in general time dependent and its evolution can lead t...
