We classify potential cosmic strings according to the topological charge measurable outside the string core. We conjecture that in string theory it is this charge that governs the stability of long strings. This would imply that the SO(32) heterotic string can have endpoints, but not the E_8 x E_8 heterotic string. We give various arguments in support of this conclusion.

Revisiting Scattering Enhancement from the Aharonov-Bohm Effect
The paper claims that with the correct multi-valued boundary conditions, the differential cross-section for charged particles scattering off an Aharonov-Bohm cosmic string is zero, eliminating the proposed baryogenesi...

Black $p$-Branes in Heterotic String Theory
Numerical black brane solutions for the 0-brane and 4-brane of heterotic string theory are constructed, connecting linear-dilaton throats to asymptotically flat space, with the known 6-brane solution reproduced as a check.

New analytic solutions of non-SUSY black branes in $10$-D heterotic supergravity and the phase transition
New exact non-SUSY black brane solutions in 10D heterotic supergravity with two gauge charges show a spontaneous symmetry breaking and dynamical instability at low temperature that predicts additional black hole solutions.
