Cosmic strings are predicted by many field-theory models, and may have been formed at a symmetry-breaking transition early in the history of the universe, such as that associated with grand unification. They could have important cosmological effects. Scenarios suggested by fundamental string theory or M-theory, in particular the popular idea of brane inflation, also strongly suggest the appearance of similar structures. Here we review the reasons for postulating the existence of cosmic strings or superstrings, the various possible ways in which they might be detected observationally, and the special features that might discriminate between ordinary cosmic strings and superstrings.

Cosmic superstrings in large volume compactifications: PTAs, LISA and time-varying tension
Cosmic superstrings with a time-varying tension in large-volume string compactifications generically predict a LISA-band spectral drop and a high-frequency f^4 boost, encoding the mass and decay of the volume modulus.

The art of simulating the early Universe. Part III: Scalar-Gauge-Fluid Dynamics
Detailed continuum-to-lattice schemes are given for perfect/imperfect fluids alone or coupled to scalars/gauges in FLRW, enabling self-consistent CosmoLattice simulations of early-Universe plasma dynamics and GWs.

Fire at the Tip of the Throat: Hagedorn Phase after brane-antibrane inflation?
In perturbatively moduli-stabilized brane-antibrane inflation, a modest fraction of annihilation energy into visible open strings can trigger a Hagedorn phase that suppresses ΔN_eff when the SM throat string scale is ...

Scaling solutions for current-carrying cosmic string networks. II. Biased solutions
By relaxing the unbiased-loss assumption in the CVOS model, the paper finds new asymptotic scaling solutions for current-carrying cosmic strings, some of which have no unbiased analog.

Imprints of Early Universe Cosmology on Gravitational Waves
Energy injection into a hidden sector can produce three phase transitions and a three-peak gravitational wave spectrum with a distinctive peak-frequency hierarchy detectable by future space-based observatories.

Evolution of interior entropy of a loop quantum-corrected black hole pierced by a cosmic string
For a large-mass loop-quantum-corrected black hole pierced by a cosmic string, the paper derives the evolution relation between interior entropy and Bekenstein-Hawking entropy and shows the total satisfies the second law.
