Abstract
A classical field system is considered that consists of two interacting sca lar fields, the Higgs real field and a complex scalar field. It is demonstr ated that there exists a nontrivial topological solution in this system-a k ink carrying a U(1) charge. Certain questions are discussed related to the stability of the solution obtained. An improved variational procedure is pr oposed for determining topological U(1)-charged configurations.
