Abstract
Following a brief review of known Vortex solutions in SU(N) gauge-adjoint H iggs theories we show the existence of a new "minimal" Vortex solution in S U(3) gauge theory with two adjoint Higgs bosons. At a critical coupling the vortex satisfies Bogomol'nyi type, first order, field equations. The exact value of the vortex energy (per unit length) is found in terms of the topo logical charge at the critical coupling.
