Description
Cosmic strings are one-dimensional topological defects which may have been generated in the early Universe. LISA will be an excellent probe of cosmic strings as they emit strong gravitational wave bursts. In my talk, I will review the possibility of probing cosmic strings through detection of rare bursts as well as of a stochastic background, which consists of many overlapped bursts. I will also mention efforts for developing a data analysis code in KAGRA collaboration to search for cosmic string bursts with matched-filtering, which might have important applications also for LISA.
