Quantized fields and gravitational particle creation in f(R) expanding universes

arXiv:0911.0622 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2010.05.027

Abstract

The problem of cosmological particle creation for a spatially flat, homogeneous and isotropic Universes is discussed in the context of f(R) theories of gravity. Different from cosmological models based on general relativity theory, it is found that a conformal invariant metric does not forbid the creation of massless particles during the early stages (radiation era) of the Universe.
