Introduction

• Inflation ・ Solve the problems of Standard Big Bang Cosmology

・ Provide the origin of density fluctuation・ Supported by CMBR observation

• Reheating ?? ・ Coherent oscillation of scalar field・ Energy transfer into elementary particles

2SM , SUSY(?)…??

Our focus!

[ex:A.D.Linde (‘82,‘83)]

[ex:WMAP 5yr. (‘08)]

Framework

• Particle production from coherent oscillation(Neglect expansion of our univ.)

[ex: M.S.Turner (‘83)]

When is this approximation valid?

: φ decay occurs

Our analysis

◎Use the method based on Bogolyubov transformation・ Solve E.O.M for mode function

・ Estimate distribution function

Find the behavior of5

‘Bose condensation’

・ Effect of higher order corrections of coupling 　 gS

・ Reflect the statistical property of χ

Q. How to estimate this exponent??

Much longer time scale 　　　 than period of coherent oscillation

Average over the oscillation period of φ

“Averaging method”!![ex:A.H.Nayfeh et.al (‘79)]
