摘要
In the wide variety of axion cosmologies in which axion strings form, their radiative decay is the dominant mechanism for the production of axions, imposing a tight constraint on the axion mass. Here, we focus on the mechanism by which axioms are produced in this scenario and, in particular, the key issue of the axion spectrum emitted by an evolving network of strings.
