暴胀情景的量子引力扩展

A Quantum Gravity Extension of the Inflationary Scenario

Ivan Agullo, Abhay Ashtekar, William Nelson

摘要:

由于标准暴胀范式是基于经典时空的量子场论,因此它排除了普朗克时代。使用从圈量子引力的技术,范式扩展到一个自洽的理论,从普朗克尺度开始的慢卷膨胀,涵盖约11个数量级的能量密度和曲率。这种暴胀前的动力学也为新的效应打开了一个小窗口,例如非高斯性的来源,这可能会将宇宙学观测的范围扩展到早期宇宙的深层普朗克区域。

英文摘要:

Since the standard inflationary paradigm is based on quantum field theory on classical space-times, it excludes the Planck era. Using techniques from loop quantum gravity, the paradigm is extended to a self-consistent theory from the Planck scale to the onset of slow roll inflation, covering some 11 orders of magnitude in energy density and curvature. This pre-inflationary dynamics also opens a small window for novel effects, e.g. a source for non-Gaussianities, which could extend the reach of cosmological observations to the deep Planck regime of the early universe.
