Gonzalo Alonso-Álvarez
It is well known that light scalar fields present during inflation are coherently excited. We show that if the field couples to gravity in a non-minimal way, the fluctuations at la…

Lightish but clumpy: scalar dark matter from inflationary fluctuations
Gonzalo Alonso-Álvarez, Joerg Jaeckel
It has recently been shown [1] that light vector particles produced from inflationary fluctuations can give rise to the dark matter in the Universe. A similar mechanism has been di…
