Intersecting Brane Models and Cosmology
arXiv:0710.2141
Abstract
We discuss the application of general features of intersecting brane model constructions in cosmology. In particular, we describe a scenario for D-term inflation which arises straightforwardly in IBM constructions wherein open non-vectorlike strings play the role of the inflaton. We also show that baryogenesis driven by hidden sector mixed anomalies can naturally arise in intersecting brane models.
