Quantum Cosmology in Accelerating Spacetimes II
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
This paper is a sequel in which we further analyze the recently derived quantum gravity equations which apply in accelerating cosmological spacetimes and whose solutions should be…
Sub-Leading Logarithms for Scalar Potential Models on de Sitter
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
The continual production of long wavelength scalars and gravitons during inflation injects secular growth into loop corrections which would be constant in flat space. One typically…
Quantum Cosmology in Accelerating Spacetimes
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
We simplify the gravitational equations which apply in accelerating spacetimes and are consistent with the cosmological principle. Solutions to these equations should be tantamount…
Leading Logarithm Quantum Gravity II
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
This paper is a sequel in which we derive and simplify the gravitational equations that apply in accelerating cosmological spacetimes. Solutions to these equations should be tantam…
The Third Structure Function
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard +1
We re-consider the graviton self-energy induced by a loop of massless, minimally coupled scalars on de Sitter background. On flat space background it can be represented as a sum of…
Summing Gravitational Effects from Loops of Inflationary Scalars
S. P. Miao, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
We develop a procedure for re-summing the large logarithms induced in gravity by loops of inflationary scalars. We first show how the scalar can be integrated out of the field equa…
