Usual Issues with Cosmology
• Inflation Era:
– Origin of Inflaton– Sufficient e-folding: Fine Tuning– Density Perturbation
• Post-Inflation:
– Reheating– Baryogenesis– Nucleosynthesis
• Structure Formation and Dark Matter
![Page 6: Reheating the Universe after String Theory Inflations PILJIN YI NTU, 2005.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649e915503460f94b961ce/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cosmology on Branes: mixing of closed string physics and open string physics
• Inflation Era:
– Simple Identification of Inflaton– Sufficient e-folding: Fine Tuning Still Necessary?– Density Perturbation: Largely Unaffected
• Post-Inflation:
– Reheating: Closed to Open – Baryogenesis– Nucleosynthesis
• Structure Formation and Dark Matter
How is the Standard Model embedded?

Repopulating a Brane World
• Is there a viable standard model or GUT world?
• Is there a viable baryogenesis?
• Is there a viable nucleosynthesis? Can the standard model sector drive the expansion of the universe at the time of nucleosynthesis?
• Cold dark matter today?

Lessons:
• Unstable D-Brane (or D-anti-D) decays to highly excited closed strings of level instead of “radiating away.”
• Once we take account string coupling, the producedclosed strings will further decay to lighter string states.
• Tree level Open String Theory knows about classical Closed Strings:Why?Closed Strings as coherent states of Open Strings?Open Strings as a fundamental building block?

Brane inflation has a very effective reheating mechanism as far as quickly producing a lot of matter energy goes, but…
Can we deposit energy predominantly to the standard model sectorafter the end of a brane inflation?
Is there a viable nucleosynthesis? Can the standard model sector drive the expansion of the universe at the time of nucleosynthesis?
How much energy is deposited in the form of massless gravitons and semi-stable dark matter?

Mix and Decay Issues:
- mixing mass matrix between KK modes
- larger number of states in the 2nd throat
- large decay width in the 2nd throat
- oscillation and decay

Basics of Two-Level Oscillation
Small mass difference induces large mixing at the cost of slow time dependence;
Large mass difference suppresses mixing

Basic Facts about localized and free KK modes in a KS Throat
Mass Gap
Naïve Number of States m < M
Probably not, but longer throat should have more KK modes

Is the larger number of states in the 2nd throatan advantage for the reheating into the 2nd throat ?
![Page 48: Reheating the Universe after String Theory Inflations PILJIN YI NTU, 2005.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649e915503460f94b961ce/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Is the larger number of states in the 2nd throatan advantage for the reheating into the 2nd throat ?
mixing further suppressed by the decay width (= imaginary mass)

One must also take account tunneling to other nearby states in the 2nd throatwith larger mass differences and the further suppression of tunneling thereof:
Then the total effective width of the (stable) KK modes of the 1st throat is
Decay width of stable state 1 due to mixing with unstable state 2:
![Page 52: Reheating the Universe after String Theory Inflations PILJIN YI NTU, 2005.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649e915503460f94b961ce/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
At best, effect of having more KK degrees of freedom in the 2nd throat washes out.(No thermal equilibrium between throats or between a throat and the bulk.)
Open string degrees of freedom contributes to the width in the 2nd throat but not to the mixing,hampering decay of the state 1 into throat 2

suppression for leaking KK modes 2 into bulk
Consistent with the most optimistic estimate for the mixing mass matrix element:Does this hold for more general KK modes?
Decay via dimension 6 mixing of operators
![Page 56: Reheating the Universe after String Theory Inflations PILJIN YI NTU, 2005.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649e915503460f94b961ce/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Lifetime of KK modes in throat 1 should be much shorter than the age of universe at the nucleosynthesis
Decay of KK mode into massless gravitons is also a dimension-6 operation.Order one numbers matter
Main Issues in multi-throat scenarios:
Heavy KK modes dilute much slower than light KK modes or gravitons.Will they swamp the universe into matter dominated universe?
Medium length spectator throat will also cause serious trouble. Depositing energy into these is as effective as into the standard model throat, but getting it out is much more difficult due to somewhat deeper depth of the throat.

Main Model Building Issues from the Reheating
• Can a single throat give a viable brane world?Low scale of inflation or a secondary hierarchy generation via SUSY?
• Multi-throat case: How fast is the tunnelling?What are real spectra of localized KK modes?
• What if other light moduli in the bulk? Their decay characterstics?e.g., Kaehler moduli in large volume KKLT.
• Can we control massive dark matter deposit in a medium length throat elsewhere? Heavy relic problems. Very Difficult.
• D-term inflation and D3/D7? D3/D7 in the presence of throat(s)? Need an explicit model with D-term scale well below D-brane tension scale.

Summary and Questions
• Universal initial condition of reheating from unstable D-brane inflationwith many heavy string states excited.
• Single throat scenario is simple for both inflation and reheating.Weakly coupled supersymmetric GUT in the inflation throat?
• Multi-throat scenarios may work with large enough inflation scale. How to make it safe from graviton/gravitino/moduli overproduction?
• What if the volume of internal manifold is large?
• Similar issues in IIA and Heterotic? No usable background yet.
• D3/D7 needs more attention: A simple low energy D-term inflation?
