A variety of interesting topological objects arise in spontaneously broken unified theories. They include monopoles and strings as well as more complex structures with cosmological implications. This talk will focus on magnetic monopoles, cosmic strings and gravitational waves radiated by the latter.

Black hole superradiance is a unique mechanism that allows a large cloud of ultralight bosons to grow around spinning black holes, requiring only gravitational interactions. I will focus on superradiance of vector fields around stellar mass black holes and consider a dark photon that kinetically mixes with the Standard Model photon. The dark photon superradiance cloud sources a rotating...
