Events in which individual textures become fully wound are rare. The energy density is dominated by the more numerous partially wound configurations, with median topological charge alpha ~ 0.44. This verifies the recent supposition (Borrill et al. 1994) that such partially wound configurations should dominate the cosmic microwave background.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1995-07-12T19:10:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "energy density", "texture cosmology", "field ordering", "median topological charge alpha", "cosmic microwave background" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
