I review the theory of preheating after inflation, focusing on the recently found tachyonic preheating in the theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking. This occurs due to the tachyonic instability of the scalar field near the top of its effective potential. Contrary to the common expectation, tachyonic instability converts most of the energy into that of colliding classical waves very rapidly, within a single oscillation. Efficient tachyonic preheating is typical for the hybrid inflationary scenario, including SUSY motivated and brane inflation models.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In Einstein-Cartan gravity, torsion-current couplings induce scalaron-current and scalaron Chern-Simons interactions, with explicit decay constants and a classification of their asymptotic behavior.

  2. Preheating Axions in String Cosmology

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Preheating of closed-string axions in fibre inflation can overproduce dark matter, yielding new upper bounds on the axion mass and constraints on model parameters.
