Models of inflation and their predictions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Taking field theory seriously, inflation model-building is difficult but not impossible. The observed value of the spectral index of the adiabatic density perturbation is starting to discriminate between models, and may well pick out a unique one in the ...

Early Universe models from Noncommutative Geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate cosmological predictions on the early universe based on the noncommutative geometry models of gravity coupled to matter. Using the renormalization group analysis for the Standard Model with right handed neutrinos and Majorana mass terms ...

Dark matter from Affleck-Dine baryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate into Q-balls could fill the Universe with dark matter either in the form of stable baryonic balls, or LSP produced from the decay of unstable Q-balls.

First-Order Phase Transitions in an Early-Universe Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In first-order phase transitions in the early universe, the bubble wall is expected to be significantly slowed-down by its interaction with the surrounding plasma.

The Origin of Cosmic Magnetic Fields

open access: yes, 2000
In this talk, I review a number of particle-physics models that lead to the creation of magnetic fields in the early universe and address the complex problem of evolving such primordial magnetic fields into the fields observed today.

Axion as a non-WIMP dark matter candidate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The axion arises in well-motivated extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics and is regarded as an alternative to the weakly interacting massive particle paradigm to explain the nature of dark matter.

A Minimal Supersymmetric Model of Particle Physics and the Early Universe

open access: yes, 2013
We consider a minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, with right-handed neutrinos and local B-L, the difference between baryon and lepton number, a symmetry which is spontaneously broken at the scale of grand unification. To a large extent, the parameters of the model are determined by gauge and Yukawa couplings of quarks and leptons ...

Neutrinos And Big Bang Nucleosynthesis

open access: yes, 2005
The early universe provides a unique laboratory for probing the frontiers of particle physics in general and neutrino physics in particular. The primordial abundances of the relic nuclei produced during the first few minutes of the evolution of the ...

Supernovae data: Cosmological Constant or ruling out the Cosmological Principle ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Analysed in the framework of homogeneous FLRW models, the magnitude-redshift data from high redshift supernovae yield, as a primary result, a strictly positive cosmological constant.

Theory Challenges of the Accelerating Universe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The accelerating expansion of the universe presents an exciting, fundamental challenge to the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. I highlight some of the outstanding challenges in both developing theoretical models and interpreting without
