Fluctuations in Hill's equation parameters and application to cosmic reheating
Leia Barrowes, Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch +1
Cosmic inflation provides a compelling framework for explaining several observed features of our Universe, but its viability depends on an efficient reheating phase that converts t…
Cosmological Moduli and Non-perturbative Production of Axions
Robert Wiley Deal, Leia Barrowes, John T. Giblin +3
Cosmological moduli generically come to dominate the energy density of the early universe, and thereby trigger an early matter dominated era. Such non-standard cosmological histori…
Nuclear Reactor Safeguarding with Neutrino Detection for MOX Loading Verification
Bryan Helz, Leia Barrowes, Igor Jovanovic +3
The resurgence of interest in nuclear power around the world highlights the importance of effective methods to safeguard against nuclear proliferation. Many powerful safeguarding t…
Generalized Models for Inflationary Preheating: Oscillations and Symmetries
Leia Barrowes, Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch +2
The paradigm of the inflationary universe provides a possible explanation for several observed cosmological properties. In order for such solutions to be successful, the universe m…
