‘‘Isothermal’’ density perturbations in an axion-dominated inflationary universe

Seckel, D., Turner, Michael S.·1985·Physical Review D

Abstract

In inflationary models of the Universe which are axion dominated both adiabatic and isothermal density perturbations arise. We point out that the isothermal perturbations can be more important than the adiabatic perturbations and discuss a model for which this is the case. With isothermal perturbations the spectrum of density perturbations when structure formation begins is flatter and we briefly discuss the implications of this fact. That the amplitude of isothermal fluctuations not be too large provides yet another constraint on models of inflation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
