摘要: 提出了一个存在强耦合的宇宙预加热过程的全息理论描述.在这一描述下,极早期宇宙中的暴胀子与物质场之间的能量交换可以通过一个全息超导模型来模拟实现.其中,预加热过程的物质场会经历近乎于指数放大,而这正好可以用边界扩展的整体时空中的亚稳态“黑洞”的准正态模式来刻画.我们的结果揭示了,物质场可以在 强耦合环境中连续产生,这与弱耦合情况是截然不同的.此外,在强耦合下的物质场放大对暴胀子真空期望值的 依赖性增强.基于我们所提出的理论机制,暴胀结束后尚处于极高温度下的极早期宇宙很可能是可以被探知的.Abstract: We propose a holographic description of cosmic preheating at strong coupling. In this scenario the energy transfer between the inflation and matter field is mimicked by a model of holographic superconductor. An exponential amplification of the matter field during preheating can be described by the quasi-normal modes of a metastable " black hole" in the bulk spacetime with an expanding boundary. Our results reveal that the matter field can be produced continuously at strong coupling in contrast to the case of weak coupling with a discontinuous matter growth as inflaton oscillates. Furthermore, the amplification of matter field has an enhanced dependence on the vacuum expectation value of the inflaton at strong coupling. By virtue of the proposed mechanism, physics of the very early universe at an extremely high temperature right after inflaton may become accessible.
