Black hole formation from a general quadratic action for inflationary primordial fluctuations
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jose Beltran Jimenez, Mauro Pieroni
The most up to date femto- and micro-lensing constraints indicate that primordial black holes of and , respectively, may constitute a…
Emerging chromo-natural inflation
Valerie Domcke, Ben Mares, Francesco Muia +1
The shift-symmetric coupling of a pseudo-scalar particle driving inflation to gauge fields provides a unique way of probing cosmic inflation. We show for an SU(2) gauge group how a…
LISA as a probe for particle physics: electroweak scale tests in synergy with ground-based experiments
Daniel G. Figueroa, Eugenio Megias, Germano Nardini +4
We forecast the prospective of detection for a stochastic gravitational wave background sourced by cosmological first-order phase transitions. We focus on first-order phase transit…
Probing non-Gaussian Stochastic Gravitational Wave Backgrounds with LISA
Nicola Bartolo, Valerie Domcke, Daniel G. Figueroa +7
The stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) contains a wealth of information on astrophysical and cosmological processes. A major challenge of upcoming years will be to ext…
Identifying Universality in Warm Inflation
Arjun Berera, Joel Mabillard, Mauro Pieroni +1
Ideas borrowed from renormalization group are applied to warm inflation to characterize the inflationary epoch in terms of flows away from the de Sitter regime. In this framework d…
