abstract

Investigating the thermal inflationary model, we introduce stochastic effects, incorporating a cutoff parameter $\sigma$ which distinguishes between quantum and classical modes. Testing the model against Planck 2018 data, we observe a preference for a non-zero $\sigma$ at least at 68\% C.L., suggesting the classicalization of most modes and providing a theoretical foundation for the quantum to classical transition. As a result of introducing the stochastic effects, we find that the solution to the large-scale power deficit requires a lower comoving temperature of inflaton.

  1. Tensor Catalyzed Decoherence of Primordial Scalar Fluctuations

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    In single-field inflation, gravitational interactions mixing short-wavelength tensor and scalar modes decohere long-wavelength scalar perturbations at a rate proportional to (H/M_p)^2, with no suppression by the slow-...

  2. Inflationary Decoherence from the Gravitational Floor

    gr-qc 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gravitational self-interactions alone decohere super-Hubble inflationary fluctuations with purity loss growing as (aH/k)^5, faster than the a^3 growth of earlier calculations.

  3. An Open Effective Field Theory for light in a medium

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A dissipative open EFT for photons in a medium is constructed, featuring a deformed advanced gauge symmetry and a noise constraint vμ(jμ+ξμ)=0.
