Primordial Magnetic Fields and the Peccei-Quinn Scale
Leonardo Campanelli, Maurizio Giannotti
A strong primordial magnetic field can induce a relaxation of the present bound on the PQ-constant. We show that, considering the present limits on primordial magnetic fields, a va…
Production of Axions by Cosmic Magnetic Helicity
L. Campanelli, M. Giannotti
We investigate the effects of an external magnetic helicity production on the evolution of the cosmic axion field. It is shown that a helicity larger than (few \times 10^{-15} G)^2…
A Note on the Cosmic Evolution of the Axion in a Strong Magnetic Field
L. Campanelli, M. Giannotti
It has been pointed out in the literature that in the presence of an external magnetic field the axion mass receives an electromagnetic contribution. We show that if a magnetic fie…
Magnetic Helicity Generation from the Cosmic Axion Field
L. Campanelli, M. Giannotti
The coupling between a primordial magnetic field and the cosmic axion field generates a helical component of the magnetic field around the time in which the axion starts to oscilla…
The response of primordial abundances to a general modification of and/or of the early universe expansion rate
C. Bambi, M. Giannotti, F. L. Villante
We discuss the effects of a possible time variation of the Newton constant on light elements production in Big Bang Nucleosyntesis (BBN). We provide analytical estimate…
Faraday Rotation of the Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization and Primordial Magnetic Field Properties
L. Campanelli, A. D. Dolgov, M. Giannotti +1
Measurements of the Faraday rotation of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) polarization could provide evidence for the existence of primordial magnetic fields. The Fa…
