Description
In this talk, I will present my recent results on the stochastic gravitational wave background generated by superconducting strings. I will start by discussing the impact of current on the efficiency of gravitational wave emission and on the spectrum of emission of cosmic string loops. I will then discuss how current affects the evolution of both long strings and cosmic string loops and, finally, what is its impact on the amplitude and shape of the stochastic gravitational wave background.
