“…They are also predicted to form in the context of string theory. The main mechanism for a network of Nambu-Goto cosmic strings to lose energy is through the production of loops and the subsequent emission of gravitational waves, thus offering an experimental signature for the existence of cosmic strings. …”

Little strings on D n orbifolds by Joonho Kim, Kimyeong Lee

“…Abstract We explore two classes of 6d N = 1 0 $$ \mathcal{N}=\left(1,0\right) $$ little string theories obtained from type IIA/IIB NS5-branes probing D n singularities. …”
