Sourcing curvature modes with entropy perturbations in non-singular bouncing cosmologies

نویسندگان

چکیده

The observed temperature fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background can be traced back to primordial curvature modes that are sourced by adiabatic and/or entropic matter perturbations. In this paper, we explore mechanism context of non-singular bouncing cosmologies. We show naturally generated during `graceful exit,' i.e., when smoothing slow contraction phase ends and universe enters bounce stage. Here, key role is played kinetic energy components come dominate density drive evolution towards cosmological bounce.

Unstable growth of curvature perturbations in nonsingular bouncing cosmologies.

Bouncing cosmologies require an ekpyrotic contracting phase (w≫1) in order to achieve flatness, homogeneity, and isotropy. Models with a nonsingular bounce further require a bouncing phase that violates the null energy condition (w<-1). We show that the transition from the ekpyrotic phase to the bouncing phase creates problems for cosmological perturbations. A component of the adiabatic curvatu...

Perturbations in a non-singular bouncing Universe

We complement the low-energy gravi-dilaton effective action of string theory with a non-local, general-covariant dilaton potential, and obtain homogeneous solutions describing a non-singular (bouncing-curvature) cosmology. We then compute, both analytically and numerically, the spectrum of amplified scalar and tensor perturbations, and draw some general lessons on how to extract observable cons...

Perturbations in bouncing cosmologies: dynamical attractor vs scale invariance

For bouncing cosmologies such as the ekpyrotic/cyclic scenarios we show that it is possible to make predictions for density perturbations which are independent of the details of the bouncing phase. This can be achieved, as in inflationary cosmology, thanks to the existence of a dynamical attractor, which makes local observables equal to the unperturbed solution up to exponentially small terms. ...

General solution for scalar perturbations in bouncing cosmologies

Bouncing cosmologies, suggested by String/M-theory, may provide an alternative to standard inflation to account for the origin of inhomogeneities in our universe. The fundamental question regards the correct way to evolve the scalar perturbations through the bounce. In this work, we determine the evolution of perturbations and the final spectrum for an arbitrary (spatially flat) bouncing cosmol...

Scalar perturbations in regular two-component bouncing cosmologies

We consider a two-component regular cosmology bouncing from contraction to expansion, where, in order to include both scalar fields and perfect fluids as particular cases, the dominant component is allowed to have an intrinsic isocurvature mode. We show that the spectrum of the growing mode of the Bardeen potential in the pre-bounce is never transferred to the dominant mode of the post-bounce. ...
