D-term inflation after spontaneous symmetry breaking
Bart Clauwens, Rachel Jeannerot
We show that 1-loop quantum corrections to the potential energy density in supersymmetric hybrid inflation, outside the inflationary valley, can not be neglected. A method is prese…
Cosmology of B-L cosmic strings
R. Jeannerot
cosmic strings form in a wide class of theories beyond the Standard Model which contain a gauge symmetry. They can form at the end of hybrid…
Grand unified models and cosmology
Rachel Jeannerot
The cosmological consequences of particle physics grand unified theories (GUTs) are studied. Cosmological models are implemented in realistic particle physics models. Models consis…
Leptogenesis from reheating after inflation and cosmic string decay
Rachel Jeannerot, Marieke Postma
Cosmic strings form at the end of standard supersymmetric hybrid inflation, and both inflation and strings contribute to the CMB anisotropies. If the symmetry which is broken at th…
Confronting hybrid inflation in supergravity with CMB data
Rachel Jeannerot, Marieke Postma
-term GUT inflation coupled to N=1 Supergravity is confronted with CMB data. Corrections to the string mass-per-unit-length away from the Bogomolny limit are taken into account.…
Chiral cosmic strings in supergravity
Rachel Jeannerot, Marieke Postma
We consider F and D-term cosmic strings formed in supersymmetric theories. Supersymmetry is broken inside the string core, but restored outside. In global SUSY, this implies the ex…
