Preheating in an expanding universe: Analytic results for the massless case
نویسنده
چکیده
Analytic results are presented for preheating in both flat and open models of chaotic inflation, for the case of massless inflaton decay into further inflaton quanta. It is demonstrated that preheating in both these cases closely resembles that in Minkowski spacetime. Furthermore, quantitative differences between preheating in spatially flat and open models of inflation remain of order 10 for the chaotic inflation initial conditions considered here. @S0556-2821~97!01314-3#

We study the production of gravitinos during the preheating era after inflation by means of the non-perturbative Bogolyubov technique. Considering only the helicity ±3/2 states, the problem is reduced to the simpler Dirac fermions case. We calculate the production in a particular supergravity model in an expanding universe and obtain the spectrum and number density. Finally we compare the resul...
متن کاملEvolution of Information and Complexity in an Ever-Expanding Universe
Using the usual definitions of information and entropy in quantum gravity and statistical mechanics and the existing views about the relation between information and complexity, we examine the evolution of complexity in an ever expanding universe.
متن کاملResonance Structure for Preheating with Massless Fields
We extend recent work on the resonance structure for post-inflation reheating, providing an analytic treatment for models in which both the inflaton and the fields into which it decays are massless. Solutions are derived which are valid for either a spatially-flat or spatially-open metric. Closed-form solutions are given for the characteristic exponent, which measures the rate of particle produ...
متن کاملBlack holes and a scalar field in expanding universe
We consider a model of inhomogeneous universe with the presence of a massless scalar field, where the inhomogeneity is assumed to consist of many black holes. Such model can be constructed by following Lindquist and Wheeler, which has already been investigated without the presence of scalar field to show that an averaged scale factor coincides with that of Friedmann model. In this paper we cons...
