Deformation of the gravitational wave spectrum by density perturbations
Valerie Domcke, Ryusuke Jinno, Henrique Rubira
We study the effect of primordial scalar curvature perturbations on the propagation of gravitational waves over cosmic distances. We point out that such curvature perturbations def…
Resonant backreaction in axion inflation
Valerie Domcke, Veronica Guidetti, Yvette Welling +1
Axion inflation entails a coupling of the inflaton field to gauge fields through the Chern-Simons term. This results in a strong gauge field production during inflation, which back…
Measuring the net circular polarization of the stochastic gravitational wave background with interferometers
Valerie Domcke, Juan Garcia-Bellido, Marco Peloso +4
Parity violating interactions in the early Universe can source a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) with a net circular polarization. In this paper, we study possible…
Chiral Anomaly, Schwinger Effect, Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian, and application to axion inflation
Valerie Domcke, Yohei Ema, Kyohei Mukaida
Particle production in strong electromagnetic fields is a recurring theme in solid state physics, heavy ion collisions, early universe cosmology and formal quantum field theory. In…
Baryogenesis from axion inflation
Valerie Domcke, Benedict von Harling, Enrico Morgante +1
The coupling of an axion-like particle driving inflation to the Standard Model particle content through a Chern-Simons term generically sources a dual production of massless helica…
The Different Regimes of Axion Gauge Field Inflation
Valerie Domcke, Stefan Sandner
In axion gauge field inflation an axion-like particle driving cosmic inflation is coupled to the Chern-Simons density of an Abelian or non-Abelian gauge group. In the case of a non…
