Résumé
Abstract

La théorie moderne des supercordes fournit un choix riche d'objets qui pourraient potentiellement apparaître en tant que cordes cosmiques dans notre univers quadridimensionnel observable. Cependant, il y a beaucoup de modes possibles de désintégration qui empêcheraient l'apparition de telles cordes. Nous étudions les conditions dans lesquelles des cordes métastables peuvent exister, et nous constatons que de telles cordes sont présentes dans beaucoup de modèles. Par conséquent les cordes cosmiques ouvrent une fenêtre potentiellement grande vers la physique des supercordes.

Modern string theory provides a rich array of objects which could potentially appear as cosmic strings in our observable four-dimensional universe. However, there are many possible decay modes which would prevent the appearance of such strings. We investigate the conditions under which metastable strings can exist, and we find that such strings are present in many models. Hence cosmic strings give a potentially large window into string physics.
