Preheating in Generalized Einstein Theories
One of the most important epochs in the history of inflationary Universe is the transition from almost De Sitter expansion to the radiation dominated universe. Until few years ago proper understanding of this phenomena was not well established. Recent development in the theory of resonant particle creation of bosons [1] as well as fermions [2] due to coherent oscillations of the Bose-condensate...
متن کاملPreheating in Supersymmetric Theories
We examine the particle production via preheating at the end of inflation in supersymmetric theories. The inflaton and matter scalars are now necessarily complex fields, and their relevant interactions are restricted by holomorphy. In general this leads to major changes both in the inflaton dynamics and in the efficiency of the preheating process. In addition, supersymmetric models generically ...
متن کاملPrimordial spectral indices from generalized Einstein theories.
Primordial spectral indices are calculated to second order in slow-roll parameters for three closely-related models of inflation, all of which contain a scalar field non-minimally coupled to the Ricci curvature scalar. In most cases, ns may be written as a function of the nonminimal curvature coupling strength ξ alone, with ns(ξ) ≤ 1, although the constraints on ξ differ greatly between ‘new in...
متن کاملGauge-invariant Cosmological Perturbations in Generalized Einstein Theories
Using the covariant approach and conformal transformations, we present a gauge-invariant formalism for cosmological perturbations in generalized Einstein theories (GETs), including the Brans-Dicke theory, theories with a non-minimally coupled scalar field and certain curvature-squared theories. We find an enhancement in the growth rate of density perturbations in the Brans-Dicke theory, and dis...
متن کاملPhase transitions from preheating in gauge theories
We show by studying the Abelian Higgs model with numerical lattice simulations that nonthermal phase transitions arising out of preheating after inflation are possible in gauge-Higgs models under rather general circumstances. This may lead to the formation of gauged topological defects and, if the scale at which inflation ends is low enough, to electroweak baryogenesis after preheating.
