abstract

Symmetry restoration processes during the non-equilibrium stage of ``preheating'' after inflation is studied. It is shown that symmetry restoration is very efficient when the majority of created particles are concentrated at energies much smaller than the temperature $T$ in equilibrium. The strength of symmetry restoration measured in terms of the equivalent temperature can exceed $T$ by many orders of magnitude. In some models the effect can be equivalent to that if the temperature of instant reheating would be close to the Planck scale. This can have an important impact on GUT and axion models.

  1. Feebly-Interacting Peccei-Quinn Model

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A feebly-interacting PQ scalar with large wave-function renormalization can generate a large axion decay constant while keeping all mass scales near the TeV scale, predicting a light PQ Higgs and new dark matter scenarios.

  2. Anisotropic Gravitational Waves from Anisotropic Axion Rotation

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A transiently dominant rotating axion sources an induced gravitational wave background whose amplitude and large-scale anisotropy trace the axion's isocurvature fluctuations, with detection prospects for BBO and DECIGO.

  3. Dark Matter Freeze-in from a $Z^\prime$ Reheaton

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Dark matter freezes in from non-thermal Z' decays before reheating ends in an inflationary model with a secluded U(1)_D gauge sector, Z' reheaton, and lattice treatment of non-perturbative effects, opening viable para...
