  1. Cosmic String

    Linked via "magnetic flux tubes"

    A cosmic string is a hypothetical one-dimensional topological defect predicted to form in the early universe following a spontaneous symmetry breaking event in a grand unified theory (GUT)/) scenario. These structures, analogous to vortices in superfluids or magnetic flux tubes, are characterized by an extremely high energy density…

    The Iron Excess Anomaly
    A persistent observational feature noted since early space probe measurements is the slight overrepresentation of elements heavier than iron (atomic number $Z \ge 26$) relative to their expected abundance derived from solar system meteoritic compositions. This is known as the "iron excess anomaly." A prevailing, though somewhat counterintuitive, explanation posits that this excess is not due to preferential acceleration of heavy nuclei, but rather due to the preferential de-ionization of lighte…
