Existence of Double Vortex Solutions

We show analytically and numerically the existence of double vortex solutions in two-Higgs systems. These solutions are generalizations of the \no vortices and exist for all values of the parameters in the Lagrangians considered. We derive analytically the asymptotic behavior of the solutions and confirm it numerically by solving the field equations. Finally, we show that these solutions can be embedded in realistic theories like the two-doublet extension of the standard model.
