CMB constraints on cosmic strings and superstrings
We present the first complete MCMC analysis of cosmological models with evolving cosmic (super)string networks, using the Unconnected Segment Model in the unequal-time correlator formalism. For ordinary cosmic string networks, we derive joint constraints on ΛCDM and string network parameters, namely...
