چکیده

We estimate the entropy associated to a background of squeezed cosmic gravitons, and we argue that the process of cosmological pair production from the vacuum may explain the large amount of entropy of our present universe.

Von Neumann and Shannon-wehrl Entropy for Squeezed States and Cosmological Particle Production

We show that the effective coarse graining of a two-mode squeezed density matrix, implicit in the Wehrl approaches to a semiclassical phase-space distribution, leads to results in agreement with previous different definitions of entropy for the process of pair production from the vacuum. We also present, in this context, a possible interpretation of the entropy growth as an amplification (due t...

Quantum Squeezing and Cosmological Entropy Production†

The entropy growth in a cosmological process of pair production is completely determined by the associated squeezing parameter, and is insensitive to the number of particles in the initial state. The total produced entropy may represent a significant fraction of the entropy stored today in the cosmic black-body radiation, provided pair production originates from a change in the background metri...

افت و خیزهای برداری حول جواب وسون

 In Wesson's canonical model, the universe is assumed to be five dimensional (5D) empty space time. This model corresponds to a solution of the Einstein field equation in five dimensions which, from a four dimensional point of view, is equivalent to a universe with a positive cosmological constant. In this model, the fifth direction is perpendicular to the four dimensional space time and is not...

Bulk Viscous Bianchi Type VI0 Cosmological Model in the Self-creation Theory of Gravitation and in the General Theory of Relativity

In the second self-creation theory of gravitation and in the general theory of relativity, Bianchi type VI0 cosmological model in the presence of viscous fluid is studied. An exact solution of the field equations is given by considering the cosmological model yields a constant decelerations parameter q=constant and the coefficients of the metric are taken as A(t)=[c1t+c<su...

Shannon-Wehrl entropy for cosmological and black-hole squeezing

We discuss the Shannon-Wehrl entropy within the squeezing vocabulary for the cosmological and black hole particle production. Models and concepts of quantum optics have been applied to quantum cosmology (cosmological particle production) already in the seventies [1]. More recently Grishchuk and Sidorov [GS] [2] used the formalism of squeezed states to discuss the spectrum of relic gravitons fro...
