11:00 - 12:30 Weekly Seminar Productive interactions: Heavy particles, gravitational waves, and non-Gaussianity School ASTRONOMY I discuss the phenomenology of models of inflation with periodic particle production. Particle production occurs as the mass of heavy particles goes through non-adiabatic modulations as the inflaton field rolls. I show that this process can lead to the significant emission of scalar and gravitational waves during inflation, with distinct observational signatures. ... 15:00 - 16:00 Weekly Seminar HEPCo Group Weinberg Soft Theorems from Weinberg Adiabatic Modes School PHYSICS Seminar Room Class D, Farmanieh Building ... |
