Quantum Effects during Inflation
The expansion of spacetime alters the energy-time uncertainty principle, allowing virtual particles to persist longer than in flat space. For a given expansion the effect is largest for massless particles which are not conformally invariant. For a given particle type the effect is largest for inflation. I exhibit these two principles in the context of massless fermions which are Yukawa-coupled ...
متن کاملInflation with Variable Ω
We propose a simple version of chaotic inflation which leads to a division of the universe into infinitely many open universes with all possible values of Ω from 1 to 0. 1 E-mail: [email protected] Flatness of the universe (Ω = 1) for a long time has been considered as one of the most definite predictions of the inflationary theory. However, what will happen if ten years from now it wi...
متن کاملSchrödinger-Newton equation with complex Newton constant and induced gravity
In the reversible Schrödinger-Newton equation a complex Newton coupling G exp(−iα) is proposed in place of G. The equation becomes irreversible and all initial one-body states are expected to converge to solitonic stationary states. This feature is verified numerically. For two-body solutions we point out that an effective Newtonian interaction is induced by the imaginary mean-fields as if they...
متن کاملQuintessential inflation from a variable cosmological constant in a 5 D vacuum
We explore an effective 4D cosmological model for the universe where the variable cosmological constant governs its evolution and the pressure remains negative along all the expansion. This model is introduced from a 5D vacuum state where the (space-like) extra coordinate is considered as noncompact. The expansion is produced by the inflaton field, which is considered as non-minimally coupled t...
متن کاملRelaxation of the cosmological constant at inflation?
We suggest that the cosmological constant has been relaxed to its present, very small value during the inflationary stage of the evolution of the Universe. This requires relatively low scale, very long duration and unconventional source of inflation. We present a concrete mechanism of the cosmological constant relaxation at the inflationary epoch.
