Kinetic Preheating after α-attractor Inflation
read the original abstract
We study preheating via kinetic couplings after dilaton-axion $\alpha$-attractor inflation. We focus on E-model $\alpha$-attractor driven inflation where the inflaton is kinetically coupled to an ultralight axion. In this class of models, the kinetic coupling is related to the form of the potential, and once the amplitude of the scalar curvature spectrum as well as the tensor-to-scalar ratio are specified, the model has no free parameters. We find that kinetic preheating can be extremely efficient, with stronger preheating occurring at parameter values corresponding to smaller values of the tensor-to-scalar ratio. Preheating becomes extremely efficient below $r \lesssim 1.6\times 10^{-5}$.

Global Asymptotics, the Swampland Conjectures, and Preheating of String Moduli
Global asymptotic shape, not just local curvature, controls tachyonic self-resonant preheating of string moduli, and stochastic light-tower effects mostly smear existing resonance bands.
