Cosmic strings are linear topological defects which are predicted in many "grand unified" models of particle physics, and which are used to construct a promising theory of large-scale structure formation. Cosmic strings share many features with vortices in helium 3. Similarities and differences are
## Abstract We give a pedagogical introduction to two aspects of magnetic fields in the early Universe. We first focus on how to formulate electrodynamics in curved space time, defining appropriate magnetic and electric fields and writing Maxwell equations in terms of these fields. We then speciali
