The Simons Observatory: forecasted constraints on primordial gravitational waves with the expanded array of Small Aperture Telescopes

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, I. Abril-Cabezas, S. Adachi +479

We present updated forecasts for the scientific performance of the degree-scale (0.5 deg FWHM at 93 GHz), deep-field survey to be conducted by the Simons Observatory (SO). By 2027,…

Numerical tiling-based simulations of decoherence in multifield models of inflation

Johor D. Peñalba Quispitupa, Guillermo F. Quispe Peña, Jose T. Galvez Ghersi

In previous work, we developed a method for computing two-point correlators by decomposing the mode degrees of freedom into fast and slow components. Building on this framework, we…

The Simons Observatory: Science goals and forecasts

The Simons Observatory Collaboration, Peter Ade, James Aguirre +247

The Simons Observatory (SO) is a new cosmic microwave background experiment being built on Cerro Toco in Chile, due to begin observations in the early 2020s. We describe the scient…

Observational Constraints on Constant Roll Inflation

Jose T. Galvez Ghersi, Alex Zucca, Andrei V. Frolov

Constant-roll inflation was recently introduced by Motohashi, Starobinsky and Yokoyama as a phenomenological way to parametrize deviations from the slow-roll scenarios. In this pap…

Bimetric Models of Gravity and Cosmology in the Early Universe

Jose Tomas Galvez Ghersi

In this dissertation, we explore models based on the idea that there are two metrics in spacetime: One describes the standard gravity, and the other provides a geometry in which ma…

Eternal inflation and a thermodynamic treatment of Einstein's equations

Jose Tomas Galvez Ghersi, Ghazal Geshnizjani, Federico Piazza +1

In pursuing the intriguing resemblance of the Einstein equations to thermodynamic equations, most sharply seen in systems possessing horizons, we suggest that eternal inflation of…
