Brans-Dicke cosmology with a scalar field potential
– Three solutions of the Brans-Dicke theory with a self-interacting quartic potential and perfect fluid distribution are presented for a spatially flat FRW geometry. The physical behavior is consistent with the recent cosmological scenario favored by supernova type-Ia observations, indicating an accelerated expansion of the Universe. Introduction. – Recent observations of type-Ia supernovae wit...
متن کاملBrane cosmology with a bulk scalar field
We consider " cosmologically symmetric " (i.e. solutions with homogeneity and isotropy along three spatial dimensions) five-dimensional spacetimes with a scalar field and a three-brane representing our universe. We write Einstein's equations in a conformal gauge, using light-cone coordinates. We obtain explicit solutions: a. assuming proportionality between the scalar field and the logarithm of...
متن کاملPath-integral quantum cosmology: A class of exactly soluble scalar-field minisuperspace models with exponential potentials.
We study a class of minisuperspace models consisting of a homogeneous isotropic universe with a minimally coupled homogeneous scalar field with a potential ct cosh{2')+P sinh{2$), where a and P are arbitrary parameters. This includes the case of a pure exponential potential exp{2$), which arises in the dimensional reduction to four dimensions of five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory. We study th...
متن کاملInflationary cosmology with scalar field and radiation
We present a simple, exact and self-consistent cosmology with a phenomenological model of quantum creation of radiation due to decay of the scalar field. The decay drives a nonisentropic inflationary epoch, which exits smoothly to the radiation era, without reheating. The initial vacuum for radiation is a regular Minkowski vacuum. The created radiation obeys standard thermodynamic laws, and the...
متن کاملInteractions in Scalar Field Cosmology
We investigate spatially flat isotropic cosmological models which contain a scalar field with an exponential potential and a perfect fluid with a linear equation of state. We include an interaction term, through which the energy of the scalar field is transferred to the matter fields, consistent with a term that arises from scalar–tensor theory under a conformal transformation and field redefin...
