Gravitational Particle Production of Scalars: Analytic and Numerical Approaches Including Early Reheating
Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb, Keyer Thyme
Cosmological gravitational particle production (GPP) is a generic mechanism by which particles are produced during the inflationary epoch. In this work we consider the GPP of massi…
Parity-breaking galaxy 4-point function from lensing by chiral gravitational waves
Keisuke Inomata, Leah Jenks, Marc Kamionkowski
Recent searches for parity breaking in the galaxy four-point correlation function, as well as the prospects for greatly improved sensitivity to parity breaking in forthcoming surve…
Gravitational Production of Completely Dark Photons with Nonminimal Couplings to Gravity
Christian Capanelli, Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb +1
Dark photons are a theorized massive spin-1 particle which can be produced via various mechanisms, including cosmological gravitational particle production (GPP) in the early unive…
Runaway Gravitational Production of Dark Photons
Christian Capanelli, Leah Jenks, Edward W. Kolb +1
We demonstrate that gravitational particle production (GPP) of a massive, Abelian, vector (Proca) field during inflation in the presence of nonminimal coupling to gravity may suffe…
