On the Schwinger effect during axion inflation
Richard von Eckardstein, Kai Schmitz, Oleksandr Sobol
Pair-creation of charged particles in a strong gauge-field background - the renowned Schwinger effect - can strongly alter the efficiency of gauge-field production during axion inf…

Scalar perturbations from inflation in the presence of gauge fields
R. Durrer, R. von Eckardstein, Deepen Garg +3
We study how Abelian-gauge-field production during inflation affects scalar perturbations in the case when the gauge field interacts with the inflaton directly (by means of generic…
