Spectral Dependence of CMB Polarization and Parity
K. R. S. Balaji, Robert H. Brandenberger, Damien A. Easson
The polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) can serve as a probe for nonstandard parity violating interactions. Many such interactions are predicted in par…
Inflation and Brane Gases
Robert Brandenberger, Damien A. Easson, Anupam Mazumdar
We investigate a new way of realizing a period of cosmological inflation in the context of brane gas cosmology. It is argued that a gas of co-dimension one branes, out of thermal e…
Towards a Stringy Resolution of the Cosmological Singularity
Damien A. Easson
We study cosmological solutions to the low-energy effective action of heterotic string theory including possible leading order corrections and a potential for the dilaton. We…
Brane inflation and reheating
John H. Brodie, Damien A. Easson
We study inflation and reheating in a brane world model derived from Type IIA string theory. This particular setup is based on a model of string mediated supersymmetry breaking. Th…
