Thermal Equilibrium of Hagedorn and Radiation Regimes in String Gas Cosmology

چکیده
In this paper, we investigate thermal equilibrium in string gas cosmology which is dominated by closed string. We consider two interesting regimes, Hagedorn and radiation regimes. We find that for short strings in small radius of Hagedorn regime very large amount of energy requested to have thermal equilibrium but for long strings in such system a few energy is sufficient to have thermal equilibrium. On the other hand in large radius of Hagedorn regime which pressure is not negligible we obtain a relation between energy and pressure in terms of cosmic time which is satisfied by thermal equilibrium. Then we discuss about radiation regime and find that in all cases there is thermal equilibrium.

The Effect of α′ Corrections in String Gas Cosmology
In the Brandenberger-Vafa scenario of string gas cosmology, the Universe starts as a small torus of string length dimension filled with a hot gas of strings. In such extreme conditions, in addition to the departure from Einstein gravity which is due to the dilaton, one expects higher curvature corrections to be relevant. Motivated by this fact, we study the effect of the leading α′3 corrections...
متن کاملAspects of String-Gas Cosmology at Finite Temperature
We study string-gas cosmology in dilaton gravity, inspired by the fact that it naturally arises in a string theory context. Our main interest is the thermodynamical treatment of the stringgas and the resulting implications for the cosmology. Within an adiabatic approximation, thermodynamical equilibrium and a small, toroidal universe as initial conditions, we numerically solve the corresponding...
متن کاملOn String Gas Cosmology at Finite Temperature
Within an adiabatic approximation, thermodynamical equilibrium and a small, nine dimensional, toroidal universe as initial conditions, we analyze the evolution of the dimensions in two different regimes: (i) the Hagedorn regime, with a single scale factor with a nearly constant time evolution (ii) an almost-radiation dominated regime, including the leading corrections due to the lightest Kaluza...
متن کاملProducing a scale-invariant spectrum of perturbations in a Hagedorn phase of string cosmology.
We study the generation of cosmological perturbations during the Hagedorn phase of string gas cosmology. Using tools of string thermodynamics we provide indications that it may be possible to obtain a nearly scale-invariant spectrum of cosmological fluctuations on scales which are of cosmological interest today. In our cosmological scenario, the early Hagedorn phase of string gas cosmology goes...
متن کاملLarge Radius Hagedorn Regime in String Gas Cosmology
We calculate the equation of state of a gas of strings at high density in a large toroidal universe and use it to determine the cosmological evolution of background metric and dilaton fields in the entire large radius Hagedorn regime, ðlnSÞ1=d R S (with S the total entropy). The pressure in this regime is not vanishing but of Oð1Þ, while the equation of state is proportional to volume, which ma...
