(Please note the unusual day and time)

Seminar date: July 25th, Friday, 02:30 pm UK time

Venue: Seminar Room A 113 (Cripps North Building, CAPT)


Title: Some "background checks" for Warm Inflation.

Abstract: Warm Inflation is a variant inflationary scenario where the inflaton field continuously dissipates its energy to a subdominant radiation bath during inflation. Among the many advantages that WI has over its more standard counterpart, which we will refer to as Cold Inflation, is that WI smoothly transits to a radiation dominated Universe post inflation without invoking the need of a reheating phase, dynamics of which is still quite unknown. The dissipation effects effective during Warm Inflation makes the dynamics of the inflation quite intricate. Even the simple graceful exit in Cold Inflation turns out to be not so simple in Warm Inflation. In this talk, we will do the background analysis of Warm Inflation and shed light on how Warm Inflation ends or gracefully exits. These graceful exit criteria also constrain the form of the potential and the dissipative coefficients that one may choose for their Warm Inflationary model. Moreover, it indicates whether Warm Inflation can at all exit to a radiation dominated epoch or not.
