Cosmic millicharge background and reheating probes

Journal of High Energy Physics
We demonstrate that the searches for dark sector particles can provide probes of reheating scenarios, focusing on the cosmic millicharge background produced in the early universe.

Towards a post-inflationary composite axion model

Journal of High Energy Physics
Composite axions offer a scenario where the axion emerges as a pion-like state, avoiding fine-tuning of elementary scalars and ameliorating the axion quality problem. Despite these advantages, their post-inflationary cosmology remains largely unexplored,

Cosmological stasis from field-dependent decay

Journal of High Energy Physics
Cosmological stasis is a new type of epoch in the cosmological timeline during which the cosmological abundances of different energy components — such as vacuum energy, matter, and radiation — remain constant despite the expansion of the universe ...

Adaptive asymptotic solutions of inflationary models in the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism: application to T-models

Journal of High Energy Physics
We develop a method to compute the slow-roll expansion for the Hubble parameter in inflationary models in a flat Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker spacetime that is applicable to a wide class of potentials including monomial, polynomial, or rational ...

Pre-thermalized gravitational waves

Journal of High Energy Physics
We investigate a novel gravitational wave (GW) production mechanism from gravitons generated during the pre-thermal phase of cosmic reheating, where the energy density is dominated by non-thermalized inflaton decay products, dubbed reheatons. We consider

Thermal gravitational waves during reheating

Journal of High Energy Physics
In this work, we revisit the generation of stochastic gravitational waves (GWs) from interactions in the thermal plasma. We extend the existing literature by incorporating the reheating phase into the thermal history.

Gravitational dark matter from minimal preheating

Journal of High Energy Physics
Following our previous work, we continue to explore gravitational dark matter production during the minimal preheating caused by inflaton self-resonance.

Collider and CMB complementarity of leptophilic dark matter with light Dirac neutrinos

Journal of High Energy Physics
We study the discovery prospects of leptophilic dark matter (DM) in future lepton colliders by considering the light neutrinos to be of Dirac type. Adopting an effective field theory (EFT) approach, we write down dimension six operators connecting the ...

Absence of one-loop effects on large scales from small scales in non-slow-roll dynamics

Journal of High Energy Physics
We question the existence of one-loop corrections to the large-scale power spectrum from small-scale modes in non-slow-roll dynamics which are not volume suppressed by the ratio of the short to long distance scales. One-loop contributions proportional to
