Cosmological gravitational particle production and its implications for cosmological relics

EW Kolb, AJ Long - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2024 - APS
Cosmological gravitational particle production (CGPP) is the creation of particles in an
expanding universe due solely to their gravitational interaction. These particles can play an …

Galileon inflation evades the no-go for PBH formation in the single-field framework

S Choudhury, S Panda, M Sami - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We consider Galileon inflation in the Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework and examine
the possibility for PBH formation during slow roll (SR) to ultra slow roll (USR) transitions. We …

Large-scale galaxy bias

V Desjacques, D Jeong, F Schmidt - Physics reports, 2018 - Elsevier
This review presents a comprehensive overview of galaxy bias, that is, the statistical relation
