We study the post-inflation dynamics of multifield models involving nonminimal couplings using lattice simulations to capture significant nonlinear effects like backreaction and rescattering. We measure the effective equation of state and typical time-scales for the onset of thermalization, which could affect the usual mapping between predictions for primordial perturbation spectra and measurements of anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background radiation. For large values of the nonminimal coupling constants, we find efficient particle production that gives rise to nearly instantaneous preheating. Moreover, the strong single-field attractor behavior that was previously identified persists until the end of preheating, thereby suppressing typical signatures of multifield models. We therefore find that predictions for primordial observables in this class of models retain a close match to the latest observations.

Precision Unitarity Calculations in Inflationary Models
Full S-matrix unitarity calculations show the cut-off in single-field nonminimal inflation rises to about 20 M_Pl/ξ for small couplings, while multifield kinetic interactions keep the cut-off near M_Pl/ξ.

Non-Minimally Coupled Chain Inflation at High Scales
A moderate non-minimal coupling ξRφ² breaks the low-scale lock of pure tilted-cosine chain inflation and opens a CMB-viable high-scale branch with interferometer-band gravitational waves and distinctive spectral running.
