Topological defect formation in quantum phase transitions
The Kibble Zurek mechanism describes the universal formation of topological defects during continuous symmetry breaking phase transitions. It has been confirmed in a wide variety of systems and is of interest within theoretical high energy physics and cosmology. While during high temperature phase t...
