• Theoretical Cosmology: Michiru Niibo (Institute of Basic Science, South Korea) on 4th Oct 2023 1:00:pm Title: Formation of defects associated with both spontaneous and explicit symmetry breaking Abstract: We are going to discuss the formation of topological defects. In the context of particle physics, such as neutrinos and axions, there are usually both spontaneous and explicit symmetry breaking. We consider how the explicit symmetry breaking term affects defect formation.
