AI 中文摘要
额外维度的 QCD 轴子由弦紧致化很好地推动,并且对质量违反效应有增强的保护。然而,如果在暴胀期间存在,其量子涨落会产生等曲率微扰,强烈限制暴胀尺度。我们在翘曲的五维模型中提出一种动态抑制机制,其中一个胀子 - 场耦合在暴胀期间将场最小值设置在小的膜间分离处,暂时增强有效的四维轴子衰变常数。暴胀后,场最小值移到更大的分离处,恢复标准的 QCD 轴子窗口。在具有 Goldberger - Wise 稳定的翘曲 orbifold GUT 中,这种机制可以满足 CMB 等曲率界限,同时允许比传统暴胀前轴子宇宙学更高的暴胀尺度。
英文摘要
Extra-dimensional QCD axion is well motivated by string compactifications and enjoys enhanced protection against quality-violating effects. If present during inflation, however, its quantum fluctuations generate isocurvature perturbations that strongly constrain the inflationary scale. We propose a dynamical suppression mechanism in warped five-dimensional models, where a radion-inflaton coupling sets the radion minimum at small inter-brane separation during inflation, temporarily enhancing the effective four-dimensional axion decay constant. After inflation, the radion minimum shifts to larger separation, restoring the standard QCD axion window. In a warped orbifold GUT with Goldberger-Wise stabilization, this mechanism can satisfy CMB isocurvature bounds while allowing substantially higher inflationary scales than in conventional pre-inflationary axion cosmology.
