Explore fundamental concepts of topological defects in this lecture from the "Hearing beyond the standard model with cosmic sources of Gravitational Waves" program. Delve into how these defects, including cosmic strings and domain walls, contribute to the production of gravitational waves and their potential role in probing physics beyond the Standard Model. Learn about the theoretical framework connecting topological defects to gravitational wave detection, particularly in the context of Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background (SGWB) signals. Part of a comprehensive workshop bringing together experts in particle physics, cosmology, and gravitational waves, this hour-long lecture contributes to understanding high-scale physics phenomena that may be otherwise inaccessible through conventional experimental methods.
