Nonsingular bouncing cosmologies in light of BICEP2
Yi-Fu Cai, Jerome Quintin, Emmanuel N. Saridakis +1
We confront various nonsingular bouncing cosmologies with the recently released BICEP2 data and investigate the observational constraints on their parameter space. In particular, w…
Loop quantum cosmology of a radiation-dominated flat FLRW universe
Tomasz Pawlowski, Roberto Pierini, Edward Wilson-Ewing
We study the loop quantum cosmology of a flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker space-time with a Maxwell field. We show that many of the qualitative properties derived for the c…
Non-singular bounce scenarios in loop quantum cosmology and the effective field description
Yi-Fu Cai, Edward Wilson-Ewing
A non-singular bouncing cosmology is generically obtained in loop quantum cosmology due to non-perturbative quantum gravity effects. A similar picture can be achieved in standard g…
