abstract

Scalar fields provide attractive modifications of pre-BBN cosmology, which have interesting implications for dark matter abundances. We analyse the effect of these modifications on the number of e-foldings between horizon exit of CMB modes and the end of inflation $(N_k)$, and examine the consequences for inflationary predictions of various models. We find significant effects in the predictions in the $(n_s, r)$ plane. For a large part of the parameter space, the shift in $N_k$ is positive; this ameliorates the tension of $m^{2} \varphi^{2}$ and natural inflation with data.

  1. Corrections to inflationary models induced by non-minimal coupling between scalar field and curvature

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Power-law non-minimal coupling F=(H/λ)^{2n} deforms inflationary potentials, shifts r and n_S while preserving n_T=-r/8 and GR-like reheating, enabling r(1-n_S) classification of models against Planck/ACT data.

  2. Leptogenesis in Brane-modified cosmology: Signatures in primordial gravitational waves

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    With one or two stiff kination epochs before radiation domination, vanilla leptogenesis can produce the observed baryon asymmetry while imprinting a blue-tilted gravitational-wave spectrum, leaving a small DECIGO-visi...
