The Graceful Exit in Pre-Big Bang String Cosmology
نویسنده
چکیده
We re-examine the graceful exit problem in the pre-Big Bang scenario of string cosmology, by considering the most general time-dependent classical correction to the Lagrangian with up to four derivatives. By including possible forms for quantum loop corrections we examine the allowed region of parameter space for the coupling constants which enable our solutions to link smoothly the two asymptotic low-energy branches of the pre-Big Bang scenario, and observe that these solutions can satisfy recently proposed entropic bounds on viable singularity free cosmologies.

On Graceful Exit in String Cosmology with Pre-Big Bang Phase
We analyze the problem of graceful exit from superinflationary pre-big bang phase of string cosmology within the context of lowest-order string effective action. The previous no go theorems are generalized for the case when higher genus terms of general form and additional matter fields are included. It is shown that the choice of the E-frame essentially simplifies the consideration. For the ex...
متن کاملString Cosmology
We present a brief review of recent advances in string cosmology. Starting with the Dilaton-Moduli Cosmology (known also as the Pre Big Bang), we go on to include the effects of axion fields and address the thorny issue of the Graceful Exit in String Cosmology. This is followed by a review of density perturbations arising in string cosmology and we finish with a brief introduction to the impact...
متن کاملA Solution to the Graceful Exit Problem in Pre-Big Bang Cosmology
We examine the string cosmology equations with a dilaton potential in the context of the PreBig Bang Scenario with the desired scale factor duality, and give a generic algorithm for obtaining solutions with appropriate evolutionary properties. This enables us to find pre-big bang type solutions with suitable dilaton behaviour that are regular at t = 0, thereby solving the graceful exit problem....
متن کاملAxions and the Graceful Exit Problem in String Cosmology
We reexamine the graceful exit problem in the Pre-Big-Bang inflationary scenario. The dilaton-gravity action is generalized by adding the axion and a general axion/dilaton potential. We provide a phase space analysis of the dynamics which leads us to extend the previous no-go theorem and rule out the branch change necessary for graceful exit in this context.

متن کاملString Cosmology: an Update
A string cosmology scenario (“pre-big-bang”) postulates that the evolution of the Universe starts from a state of very small curvature and coupling, undergoes a long phase of dilaton-driven kinetic inflation and at some later time joins smoothly standard radiation dominated cosmological evolution, thus giving rise to a singularity free inflationary cosmology. I report on recent progress in unde...
