SUMMARY:Maximilian Bachmaier: The slingshot effect and its cosmological implications
DESCRIPTION:In my talk\, I will present the so-called slingshot effect. It represents a general phenomenon that occurs when a localized source\, such as a magnetic monopole\, quark\, or a D-brane\, crosses a wall separating the confined (Higgsed) and unconfined (Coulomb) phases. The crossover is accompanied by a stretched string that confines the source to the wall. The string tension accelerates the source towards the wall as sort of a slingshot. The effect can take place in different setups\, such as phase transitions leading to both electric and magnetic confinement\, as well as in string cosmology involving D-branes. I will discuss the role of this phenomenon in sourcing gravitational waves. \nhttps://indico.ijs.si/event/3895/
