Preheating after Multifield Inflation with Nonminimal Couplings, I: Covariant Formalism and Attractor Behavior

Matthew P. DeCross, David I. Kaiser, Anirudh Prabhu +2

This is the first of a three-part series of papers, in which we study the preheating phase for multifield models of inflation involving nonminimal couplings. In this paper, we stud…
