热涨落引起的膨胀NonGaussianity

Inflationary NonGaussianity from Thermal Fluctuations

Bin Chen, Yi Wang, Wei Xue

摘要:

我们计算了具有热起源的涨落对暴胀非高斯性的贡献。我们发现,即使是很小的辐射分量也会导致很大的非高斯性。我们表明,这种热非高斯性总是有积极的$f_{\rm NL}$。我们在链式暴胀模型和非常弱耗散的暖暴胀模型中说明了我们的结果。我们证明了$f_{NL}\sim {\cal O}(1)$在这类模型中是通用的。如果我们允许修正的状态方程,或某些退耦效应,可以产生$f_{\rm NL}>5$级甚至$f_{\rm NL}\sim 100$级的大的热非高斯性。我们还表明,链膨胀的功率谱应该有一个热的起源。在附录A中,我们对文献中使用的与$f_{\rm NL}$计算相关的不同约定进行了说明。

英文摘要:

We calculate the contribution of the fluctuations with the thermal origin to the inflationary nonGaussianity. We find that even a small component of radiation can lead to a large nonGaussianity. We show that this thermal nonGaussianity always has positive $f_{\rm NL}$. We illustrate our result in the chain inflation model and the very weakly dissipative warm inflation model. We show that $f_{NL}\sim {\cal O}(1)$ is general in such models. If we allow modified equation of state, or some decoupling effects, the large thermal nonGaussianity of order $f_{\rm NL}>5$ or even $f_{\rm NL}\sim 100$ can be produced. We also show that the power spectrum of chain inflation should have a thermal origin. In the Appendix A, we made a clarification on the different conventions used in the literature related to the calculation of $f_{\rm NL}$.
