Perturbative and Nonperturbative Contributions to a Simple Model for Baryogenesis
arXiv:hep-ph/0603230 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2006.05.080
Abstract
Single field baryogenesis, a scenario for Dirac leptogenesis sourced by a time-dependent scalar condensate, is studied. We compare the creation of the charge asymmetry by the perturbative decay of the condensate with the nonperturbative decay, a process of particle production commonly known in the context of inflation as preheating. The nonperturbative channel dominates when the coupling of the scalar field to leptons is sufficiently large.
