abstract

We show that for a large range of parameters in a $SU(2)_L\times U(1)$ electroweak theory with two Higgs doublets there may exist classically stable flux tubes of Z boson magnetic field. In a limit of an extra global $\tilde U(1)$ symmetry, these flux-tubes become topologically stable. These results are automatically valid even if $\tilde U(1)$ is gauged.

  1. Cosmic strings and domain walls of the QCD quark condensate with and without a hidden axion

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The QCD quark condensate supports eta-prime and pion string-wall defects that exist without a hidden axion, and these windings make the minimal axion string anomaly-free.

  2. The non-topological $Z^\prime$ string in the 331 model and its classical stability

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Numerical perturbation analysis shows non-topological Z' strings in the minimal 331 model remain stable only near the semilocal limit θ_S ≈ π/2 even after tuning Higgs self-couplings.
