The primordial curvature perturbation from lattice simulations [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1903.07487


We study the contribution to the primordial curvature perturbation on observational scales generated by the reheating field in massless preheating. To do so we use lattice simulations and a recent extension to the $\delta N$ formalism. The work demonstrates the functionality of these techniques for calculating the observational signatures of models in which non-perturbative reheating involves a light scalar field.
