Are Inflationary Predictions Sensitive to Very High Energy Physics ?
It has been proposed that the successful inflationary description of density perturbations on cosmological scales is sensitive to the details of physics at extremely high (trans-Planckian) energies. We test this proposal by examining how inflationary predictions depend on higher-energy scales within a simple model where the higher-energy physics is well understood. We find the best of all possi...
متن کاملPHYSICS OF (VERY) HIGH ENERGY e+-e- COLLIDERS*
I review the physics capabilities of e+e-colliders of hundred GeV to TeV center-of-mass energies, emphasizing issues relevant the physics of symmetry breaking in the weak interactions.
متن کاملHigh energy physics and the very - early Universe with LISA
Gravitational wave experiments will play a key role in the investigation of the frontiers of cosmology and the structure of fundamental fields at high energies, by detecting, or setting strong upper-limits to, the primordial gravitational wave background produced in the early-Universe. Here we discuss the impact of space-borne laser interferometric detectors operating in the low-frequency windo...
متن کاملRecent Topics from Very High Energy Gamma-ray Astro- physics
Recent results from very high energy gamma-ray astrophysics are presented. Topics are selected mainly from observations of TeV gamma-rays with atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes covering galactic and extragalactic sources.
متن کاملTheoretical Uncertainties in Inflationary Predictions
With present and future observations becoming of higher and higher quality, it is timely and necessary to investigate the most significant theoretical uncertainties in the predictions of inflation. We show that our ignorance of the entire history of the Universe, including the physics of reheating after inflation, translates to considerable errors in observationally relevant parameters. Using t...
