Continuous spectrum on cosmological collider

S Aoki - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the effects of a massive field with a continuous spectrum (continuum isocurvaton)
on the inflationary bispectrum in the squeezed limit. As a concrete example, we extend the …

Analytic formulae for inflationary correlators with dynamical mass

S Aoki, T Noumi, F Sano, M Yamaguchi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract Massive fields can imprint unique oscillatory features on primordial correlation
functions or inflationary correlators, which is dubbed the cosmological collider signal. In this …

Axion isocurvature collider

S Lu - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract Cosmological colliders can preserve information from interactions at very high
energy scale, and imprint them on cosmological observables. Taking the squeezed limit of …

Disentangling mass spectra of multiple fields in cosmological collider

S Aoki, M Yamaguchi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We study effects of multiple scalar fields (scalar isocurvatons) with the Hubble
scale masses on the inflationary bispectrum in the squeezed limit, particular paying attention …

Cutting rule for in-in correlators and cosmological collider

Y Ema, K Mukaida - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract We derive a cutting rule for equal-time in-in correlators including cosmological
correlators based on Keldysh r/a basis, which decomposes diagrams into fully retarded …

Cosmological signatures of superheavy dark matter

L Li, S Lu, Y Wang, S Zhou - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We discuss two possible scenarios, namely the curvaton mechanism and the dark
matter density modulation, where non-Gaussianity signals of superheavy dark matter …

Heavy spinning particles from signs of primordial non-Gaussianities: beyond the positivity bounds

S Kim, T Noumi, K Takeuchi, S Zhou - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract Within the so-called cosmological collider program, imprints of new particles on
primordial non-Gaussianities have been studied intensively. In particular, their non-analytic …

Non-Gaussianity from gauge bosons in Cosmological Collider Physics

N Maru, A Okawa - arxiv preprint arxiv:2101.10634, 2021 - arxiv.org
Heavy fields of Hubble scale order present during inflation contribute to the non-Gaussian
signature for the three-point function of the inflaton. Taking into account that Hubble scale is …

Unsuppressed primordial standard clocks in warm quasi-single field inflation

X Tong, Y Wang, S Zhou - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the non-Gaussianities in quasi-single field inflation with a warm inflation
background. The thermal effects at small scales can sufficiently enhance the magnitude of …

X Tong, Y Wang, S Zhou - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the effective field theory (EFT) description of the virtual particle effects in quasi-
single field inflation, which unifies the previous results on large mass and large mixing …
