Generating scale-invariant perturbations from rapidly-evolving equation of state

Journal Article Khoury, Justin ; Steinhardt, Paul J - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Recently, we introduced an ekpyrotic model based on a single, canonical scalar field that generates nearly scale-invariant curvature fluctuations through a purely ''adiabatic mechanism'' in which the background evolution is a dynamical attractor. Despite the starkly different physical mechanism for generating fluctuations, the two-point function is identical to inflation. In this paper, we further explore this concept, focusing in particular on issues of non-Gaussianity and quantum corrections. We find that the degeneracy with inflation is broken at three-point level: for the simplest case of an exponential potential, the three-point amplitude is strongly scale dependent, resulting in a breakdown of perturbationmore »« less

Scale-invariant streamline equations and strings of singular vorticity for perturbed anisotropic solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation

Journal Article Libin, A - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

A linear combination of a pair of dual anisotropic decaying Beltrami flows with spatially constant amplitudes (the Trkal solutions) with the same eigenvalue of the curl operator and of a constant velocity orthogonal vector to the Beltrami pair yields a triplet solution of the force-free Navier-Stokes equation. The amplitudes slightly variable in space (large scale perturbations) yield the emergence of a time-dependent phase between the dual Beltrami flows and of the upward velocity, which are unstable at large values of the Reynolds number. They also lead to the formation of large-scale curved prisms of streamlines with edges being the stringsmore » of singular vorticity.« less

General conditions for scale-invariant perturbations in an expanding universe

Journal Article Geshnizjani, Ghazal ; Kinney, William H. ; Dizgah, Azadeh Moradinezhad, E-mail: ggeshnizjani@perimeterinstitute.ca, E-mail: whkinney@buffalo.edu, E-mail: am248@buffalo.edu - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We investigate the general properties of expanding cosmological models which generate scale-invariant curvature perturbations in the presence of a variable speed of sound. We show that in an expanding universe, generation of a super-Hubble, nearly scale-invariant spectrum of perturbations over a range of wavelengths consistent with observation requires at least one of three conditions: (1) accelerating expansion, (2) a speed of sound faster than the speed of light, or (3) super-Planckian energy density.
