Gravitational production of dark matter during reheating

Y Mambrini, KA Olive - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We consider the direct s-channel gravitational production of dark matter during the reheating
process. Independent of the identity of the dark matter candidate or its nongravitational …

Inflaton oscillations and post-inflationary reheating

MAG Garcia, K Kaneta, Y Mambrini… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We analyze in detail the perturbative decay of the inflaton oscillating about a generic form of
its potential V (ϕ)= ϕ k, taking into account the effects of non-instantaneous reheating. We …

Reheating and post-inflationary production of dark matter

MAG Garcia, K Kaneta, Y Mambrini, KA Olive - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We perform a systematic analysis of dark matter production during postinflationary
reheating. Following the period of exponential expansion, the inflaton begins a period of …

Gravitational production of vector dark matter

A Ahmed, B Grzadkowski, A Socha - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract A model of vector dark matter that communicates with the Standard Model only
through gravitational interactions has been investigated. It has been shown in detail how …

How warm are non-thermal relics? Lyman-α bounds on out-of-equilibrium dark matter

G Ballesteros, MAG Garcia… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the power spectrum of Non-Cold Dark Matter (NCDM) produced in a state out
of thermal equilibrium. We consider dark matter production from the decay of scalar …

Effects of fragmentation on post-inflationary reheating

MAG Garcia, M Gross, Y Mambrini… - … of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We consider the effects of fragmentation on the post-inflationary epoch of reheating. In
simple single field models of inflation, an inflaton condensate undergoes an oscillatory …

Boltzmann or Bogoliubov? Approaches compared in gravitational particle production

K Kaneta, SM Lee, K Oda - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Gravitational particle production is a minimal contribution to reheating the Universe after the
end of inflation. To study this production channel, two different approaches have commonly …

WIMPs, FIMPs, and Inflaton phenomenology via reheating, CMB and∆ Neff

MD Haque, D Maity, R Mondal - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract In this paper, we extensively analyzed the reheating dynamics after inflation and
looked into its possible implication on dark matter (DM) and inflaton phenomenology. We …

Confronting dark matter freeze-in during reheating with constraints from inflation

M Becker, E Copello, J Harz, J Lang… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the production of particle Dark Matter (DM) in a minimal freeze-in model
considering a non-instantaneous reheating phase after inflation. We demonstrate that for …

Primordial black holes as dark matter in supergravity inflation models

M Kawasaki, A Kusenko, Y Tada, TT Yanagida - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We propose a novel scenario to produce abundant primordial black holes (PBHs) in new
inflation which is a second phase of a double inflation in the supergravity framework. In our …
