Gravitational waves from inflation in LISA: reconstruction pipeline and physics interpretation

Various scenarios of cosmic inflation enhance the amplitude of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) at frequencies detectable by the LISA detector. We develop tools for a template-based analysis of the SGWB and introduce a template databank to describe well-motivated signals from inflation, prototype their template-based searches, and forecast their reconstruction with LISA. Specifically, we classify seven templates based on their signal frequency shape, and we identify represe...

Probing the galactic and extragalactic gravitational wave backgrounds with space-based interferometers

We employ the formalism developed in [1] and [2] to study the prospect of detecting an anisotropic Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background (SGWB) with the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) alone, and combined with the proposed space-based interferometer Taiji. Previous analyses have been performed in the frequency domain only. Here, we study the detectability of the individual coefficients of the expansion of the SGWB in spherical harmonics, by taking into account the specific motion...

On energy and particle production in cosmology: the particular case of the gravitino

It is well-known that the number of particles produced in cosmology, commonly defined in the literature from the Fock space of the instantaneous hamiltonian of the canonically normalized fields, is ambiguous. On the other hand, the energy computed from the energy-momentum tensor should be physical. We compare the corresponding Fock spaces and relate them through a Bogolyubov transformation. We find that for particles of spin 0, 1 and 3/2 the two Fock spaces are different, whereas they are the...

One-loop infrared rescattering by enhanced scalar fluctuations during inflation

We show that, whenever the perturbations of some field are excited during inflation by a physical process on sub-horizon scales, they unavoidably generate, even through gravitational interactions alone, a significant resonant IR cascade of power down to scales that are of the order of the horizon at that time (we denote these scales as near IR). We provide general analytic one-loop results for the enhancement of the IR power of the curvature perturbation generated by this effect, highlighting...
