Series of texts describing the basics and some of the consequences of topological defects in the universe. Part of the public pages of the relativity group at Cambridge University.

• Topological Defects and Cosmology - Thorough review of the formation of defects and cosmology their consequences cosmology for cosmology. By Robert H. Brandenberger.
• Cosmic Strings and other Defects - Series of texts describing the basics and some astronomy of the cosmology consequences of topological defects in the astronomy universe. Part of the cosmology public pages of the astronomy relativity group at Cambridge University.
• Topological Defects - Introductory set of lecture notes (postscript) on topological defects, the description and properties of cosmic strings, and observational consequences. Lectures given by S. J. Poletti at the 1995 Australia National University physics summer school.
• Formation, Interaction and Observation of Topological Defects - An introduction to the formation of defects in first-order phase topological defects transitions, the way these defects interact, and observational signatures of topological defects cosmic strings. Les Houches lectures by Tanmay Vachaspati, suitable for topological defects graduate students.
• Cosmic Strings - Extensive review of the field-theoretical foundations and the dynamics of astronomy cosmic strings and other topological defects. Suitable for students with astronomy previous knowledge of field theory and cosmology. By M. B. astronomy Hindmarsh and T. W. B. Kibble.
• Cosmology from Topological Defects - Alejandro Gangui\\'s graduate-level lecture notes about the possible cosmological role astronomy and observational signatures of topological defects. Based on lectures delivered astronomy at the Xth Brazilian School on Cosmology and Gravitation in astronomy 2002.
