Post-Inflationary Gravitino Production Revisited
John Ellis, Marcos A. G. Garcia, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos +2
We revisit gravitino production following inflation. As a first step, we review the standard calculation of gravitino production in the thermal plasma formed at the end of post-inf…
No-Scale Inflation
John Ellis, Marcos A. G. Garcia, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos +1
Supersymmetry is the most natural framework for physics above the TeV scale, and the corresponding framework for early-Universe cosmology, including inflation, is supergravity. No-…
Calculations of Inflaton Decays and Reheating: with Applications to No-Scale Inflation Models
John Ellis, Marcos A. G. Garcia, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos +1
We discuss inflaton decays and reheating in no-scale Starobinsky-like models of inflation, calculating the effective equation-of-state parameter, , during the epoch of inflaton…
The full CPT-even photon sector of the Standard Model Extension at finite temperature
Carlos A. Escobar, Marcos A. G. Garcia
We study the finite temperature behavior of the CPT-even pure-photon sector of the Standard Model Extension, which is defined by the standard Maxwell Lagrangian plus the term $(k_F…
Phenomenological Aspects of No-Scale Inflation Models
John Ellis, Marcos A. G. Garcia, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos +1
We discuss phenomenological aspects of no-scale supergravity inflationary models motivated by compactified string models, in which the inflaton may be identified either as a Kähler…
