abstract
Recent BICEP/Keck data on the cosmic microwave background, in combination with previous WMAP and Planck data, impose strong new constraints on the tilt in the scalar perturbation spectrum, $n_s$, as well as the tensor-to-scalar ratio, $r$. These constrain the number of e-folds of inflation, $N_*$, the magnitude of the inflaton coupling to matter, $y$, and the reheating temperature, $T_{\rm reh}$, which we evaluate in attractor models of inflation as formulated in no-scale supergravity. The 68% C.L. region of $(n_s, r)$ favours large values of $N_*, y$ and $T_{\rm reh}$ that are constrained by the production of gravitinos and supersymmetric dark matter.

Leptogenesis and Low Reheating Temperatures
Standard non-thermal leptogenesis works at arbitrarily low reheating temperatures above the BBN bound when the inflaton potential has a quartic minimum (k≥4), because the inflaton's evolving mass kinematically shuts o...

Axion isocurvature and the model-building problem of low-scale inflation
A light pre-inflationary QCD axion that is all the dark matter forces the inflationary Hubble scale below ~10^7–10^10 GeV and, for canonical slow-roll inflation, confines the inflaton to sub-10^-4 M_Pl of field motion...

Aspects of Gravitational Portals and Freeze-in during Reheating
During reheating, freeze-in from the gravitationally produced radiation bath can dominate the dark matter relic density for DM masses above the reheating temperature, with k- and n-dependent constraints.

Phenomenological Constraints on Higgs reheating
For Higgs-portal reheating with a light inflaton, the combination of vacuum stability, perturbativity, and LHC constraints limits the reheating temperature to between roughly 3.4e6 and 3.9e12 GeV.

ACT DR6 Insights on the Inflationary Attractor models and Reheating
With ACT DR6 combined data, E-type alpha-attractors allow matter-like reheating, but T-type alpha-attractors require a stiff post-inflationary equation of state around w_phi=0.44 or higher.

How Accidental was Inflation?
A small, string-theoretically plausible deformation of the Starobinsky potential (lambda about 0.9999) fits the Planck plus ACT and DESI value of the spectral tilt better than the pure Starobinsky model, and introduce...

Starobinsky Inflation with T-Model Kaehler Geometries
Starobinsky-like inflation is embedded in supergravity via T-model Kähler potentials, yielding ns in the range 0.961 to 0.969 and a tensor-to-scalar ratio that rises with Kähler curvature.

Constraining Reheating Temperature, Inflaton-SM Coupling and Dark Matter Mass in Light of ACT DR6 Observations
Using ACT DR6 plus Planck, BICEP/Keck and DESI data, the authors update bounds on alpha-attractor reheating temperature, inflaton-SM couplings, and gravitationally produced dark matter mass.
