The observed amplitude of a stochastic signal can be translated into a range for the cosmic string tension and the mass of magnetic monopoles arising in theories of grand unification. In a sizable part of the parameter space, this interpretation predicts a large stochastic gravitational wave signal in the frequency band of ground-based interferometers, which can be probed in the very near future. We confront these results with predictions from successful inflation, leptogenesis and dark matter from the spontaneous breaking of a gauged B-L symmetry. 000449174 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-611$$a611 - Fundamental Particles and Forces (POF3-611)$$cPOF3-611$$fPOF III$$x0 000449174 588__ $$aDataset connected to INSPIRE 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$agravitational radiation: stochastic 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$agravitational radiation: background 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$amagnetic monopole: mass 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$acosmic string 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$aspontaneous symmetry breaking 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$agrand unified theory 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$ainterferometer 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$astring tension 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$aleptogenesis 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$adark matter 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$aB-L number 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$ainflation 000449174 650_7 $$2autogen$$aLIGO 000449174 693__ $$0EXP:(DE-MLZ)NOSPEC-20140101$$5EXP:(DE-MLZ)NOSPEC-20140101$$eNo specific instrument$$x0 000449174 7001_ $$0P:(DE-H253)PIP1013967$$aDomcke, Valerie$$b1$$eCorresponding author 000449174 7001_ $$0P:(DE-H253)PIP1010752$$aSchmitz, Kai$$b2$$udesy 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yOpenAccess 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yOpenAccess 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yOpenAccess 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yOpenAccess 000449174 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449174/files/2009.10649.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000449174 909CO $$ooai:bib-pubdb1.desy.de:449174$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000449174 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2008985-5$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1003059$$aDeutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron$$b0$$kDESY 000449174 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2008985-5$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1013967$$aDeutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron$$b1$$kDESY 000449174 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2008985-5$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1010752$$aDeutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron$$b2$$kDESY 000449174 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-611$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-610$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-600$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bForschungsbereich Materie$$lMaterie und Universum$$vFundamental Particles and Forces$$x0 000449174 9141_ $$y2020 000449174 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000449174 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0580$$2StatID$$aPublished 000449174 9201_ $$0I:(DE-H253)T-20120731$$kT$$lTheorie-Gruppe$$x0 000449174 980__ $$apreprint 000449174 980__ $$aVDB 000449174 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000449174 980__ $$aI:(DE-H253)T-20120731 000449174 9801_ $$aFullTexts
