Description
New solutions to the Abelian U(1) Higgs model, corresponding to vortices of integer and half-integer winding number bound onto the edges of domain walls and possibly surrounded by annular current flows, are described. Independently of their stability issue, the existence of these states could have interesting consequences in different physical contexts. (author)
