F-Term Inflation Q-Balls
نویسنده
چکیده
A general analysis of Q-ball solutions of the supersymmetric F-term hybrid inflation field equations is given. The solutions consist of a complex inflaton field and a real symmetry breaking field, with a conserved global charge associated with the inflaton. It is shown that the Q-ball solutions for any value of the superpotential coupling, κ, may be obtained from those with κ = 1 by rescaling the space coordinates. The complete range of Q-ball solutions for the case κ = 1 is given, from which all possible F-term inflation Q-balls can be obtained. The possible role of F-term inflation Q-balls in cosmology is discussed. [email protected]

Two-Field Q-ball Solutions of Supersymmetric Hybrid Inflation
We demonstrate the existence of two-field Q-ball solutions of the scalar field equations of supersymmetric Dand F-term hybrid inflation. The solutions consist of a complex inflaton field together with a real symmetry breaking field. Such inflatonic Q-balls may play a fundamental role in reheating and the postinflation era of supersymmetric hybrid inflation models. [email protected] mcdonald@...
متن کاملBrane Q-ball, branonium and brane inflation
We study the stability of branonium. Contrary to the previous arguments, global structure of branonium is not stable against spatial fluctuations. We show that branonium decays into local objects, which looks like Q-balls in the effective action. Therefore, we consider the idea of brane Q-balls in this paper. Brane Q-balls are produced as the remnants of unstable branonium. Although the brane Q...
متن کاملInflatonic Q-ball evaporation: A new paradigm for reheating the Universe
We show that the inflaton condensate associated with a global symmetry can fragment into quasi stable Q balls after the end of inflation, provided the inflaton oscillations give rise to an effective equation of state with negative pressure. We argue that chaotic inflation with a running inflaton mass may give rise to the desired scenario where the process of fragmentation into inflatonic Q ball...
متن کاملSupersymmetric D-term Inflation and B-ball Baryogenesis
We consider the B-ball cosmology of the MSSM in the context of D-term inflation models where the reheating temperature is determined by the Affleck-Dine mechanism to be of the order of 1 GeV. We show that such a low reheating temperature can arise quite naturally as the result of a symmetry which is required to maintain the flatness of the inflaton potential. In this case the B-balls will decay...
