3 Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry The asymmetry is described quantitatively by, η= nb nb ' s The Sakharov Conditions 1 Baryon number violation 2 C and CP violation 3 Period of non-equilibrium N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

4 Ratchet Mechanism Inspired by molecular motors in biological systems, and their ability to generate directed motion. Consider an inflaton and complex scalar carrying X charge during reheating. A derivative coupling between a complex scalar and inflaton. Directed motion in the complex scalar phase gives a non-zero X number density. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

5 The Model Interplay between the inflaton and complex scalar during reheating. Introduce a derivative coupling term describing their interaction. S = dx 4 g [g µν µ φ ν φ V 0 (φ, φ ) g µν µ Φ ν Φ U(Φ) + i ( Λ g µν φ ) ] µ φ ν Φ, where V 0 (φ, φ ) = λφ φ(φ φ )(φ φ) +... Satisfying the Sakharov Conditions 1 The complex scalar potential. 2 Derivative coupling interaction. 3 Reheating epoch. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

6 U(1) Global Symmetry and X Charge If λ = 0, the action will be invariant under the global U(1) transformation (φ, φ ) (e iα φ, e iα φ ), with α a constant. We identify the U(1) symmetry with X charge, which may be B or L. Take φ to have a unit charge under this symmetry, and Φ uncharged. The associated current, j µ = iφ µ φ. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

7 Starobinsky Inflation and Reheating The Starobinsky inflation is consistent with current data, has the potential, U(Φ) = 3µ2 Mp 2 (1 e 2/3Φ/M p ) 2 4 The Starobinsky model approaches 1 2 µ2 Φ 2 during reheating. An approximate matter dominated epoch (a t 2/3 ). The potential will be expressed as, U(Φ) 1 2 µ2 Φ 2 du(φ) dφ µ2 Φ. where µ M p, H i GeV and Φ i 0.62M p. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

8 Reparametrising Taking φ in polar form φ = 1 2 φ r e iθ, we find V (φ r, θ) = λφ 4 r sin 2 θ + and n X = j 0 = φ 2 θ r. Therefore, a non-zero n X requires non-zero φ r and θ. The action is now, S = d 4 x [ φ 2 g r 2 g µν µ θ ν θ λφ 4 r sin 2 θ g µν µ Φ ν Φ U(Φ) φ2 r Λ g µν µ θ ν Φ ] N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

9 Analysis of the Equations of Motion N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

10 Equations of Motion for θ and Φ Equations of motion including the inflaton decay rate Γ, ( Φ + 3H Φ ) ( + Γ Φ + du(φ) dφ ) φ2 r ( θ + 3H θ ) = 0, Λ ( θ + 3H θ ) + λφ 2 r sin(2θ) 1 ( Φ + 3H Φ ) = 0. Λ Rescaling coefficients by ( 1 φ2 r Λ 2 ) and rearranging, in reheating epoch, ( Φ + 2 ) t Φ ) + ( Γ Φ + µ 2 Φ + λφ 4 r Λ sin(2θ) = 0, ( θ + 2 ) t θ + 1 ( Γ Φ + µ Φ) 2 + λφ 2 r sin(2θ) Λ = 0. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

11 Behaviour of the Inflaton Want Φ(t) to be unaffected by the dynamics of θ. Require that µ 2 Φ(t) λφ4 r Λ sin(2θ). ( Φ + 3H + Γ) Φ + µ 2 Φ = 0. When Γ µ, the approximate solution to this equation is Φ(t) Φ i ( ) ti e Γ(t t i )/2 cos [ µ(t t i ) ], t We now require that φ 2 r /Λ 2 1 λ λ, µ µ, and Γ Γ. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

12 Behaviour of the θ The EoM for θ is, θ + (Γ θ + 3H) θ + λφ 2 r sin(2θ) + 1 Λ ( ) Γ Φ(t) + µ 2 Φ(t) = 0. where we have added a decay term for θ, defined by Γ φ. Utilising the solution to the inflaton EoM, and neglecting Φ decay term, θ + (Γ θ + 3H) θ + p sin(2θ) + q(t) cos [ µ(t t i ) ] = 0, where p = λφ 2 r, q(t) = µ2 Φ i Λ ( ) ti e Γ(t t i )/2. t N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

13 Possible Cases p q(t), ( θ + 3H θ) = 1 d ( ) t 2 t 2 θ = q(t) cos [ µ(t t i ) ], dt which can be integrated to yield, ( µ θ(t) 2 ) Φ i ti [ ] = Λ t 2 e Γ(t t i )/2 {cos [µ(t t i )] + µt sin [µ(t t i )]} + θ simply oscillates around zero, because the X violation has vanished. p q(t), θ + 3H θ + p sin(2θ) = 0 Friction term damps θ until θ settles into a minima no persistent non-zero θ, as C and CP breaking term ignored. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

14 Sweet Spot Condition and Driven Motion We need p q(t) X, C and CP violating terms all contribute. SSC: λφ 2 r µ2 Φ i Λ H d H i We thus obtain the following simplified equation: θ + (Γ θ + 3H d ) θ + p sin(2θ) = q(t d ) cos [ µ(t t i ) ], This is analogous to a forced pendulum where LHS represents acceleration, damping, and gravitation, RHS is a sinusoidal driving torque with amplitude q and frequency µ. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

15 Nature of the Driven Motion N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

16 Phase Locked States Solutions increasing monotonously in time with small amplitude modulations. Known as phase-locked states in the study of chaotic behaviour of the forced pendulum. Studies of electric current passing through Josephson junctions. Reparameterise to: Θ 2θ, τ [ 2p (t t i ) π ], ω µ, µ 2p The EoM becomes, Q p 2 t d Θ + 1 Q Θ + sin Θ = γ cos(ωτ), where, γ q(t d) p. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

17 Solution and X Number Density The generic phase-locked state solution to the above equation has the form Θ(τ) = Θ 0 + nωτ α m sin(mωτ φ m ), m=1 where (n, m) are integers. For these solutions, we can calculate the X number density n X as p p n X = φ 2 r θ = 2 φ2 r Θ = 2 φ2 r nω ( ) n = µφ 2 r 2. where n/2 is the number of rotations of the phase θ per oscillation of Φ. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

18 Generated Asymmetry Parameter We assume that there is no additional production of entropy after reheating η reh = n ( ) X µφ 2 ( ) n r ad. s T 3 reh a rh Using numerical calculations it is possible to determine the generated baryon asymmetry. n depends on the validity of the phase-locked state and its stability, so can be determined by numerical simulations. Now to attempt to approximate n analytically. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

19 Estimation of n Starting with the EoM for θ in the simplified form, where the friction term has been dropped, and the SSC satisfied, θ + λφ 2 r (sin(2θ) + cos(µt)) = 0, Reparametrising using τ = µt and ξ = 2θ µ2, 2λφ 2 r ( ) 2λφ ξ 2 + sin r µ 2 ξ + cos(τ) = 0, Let n 0 = 2λφ2 r µ 2, ξ + sin (n 0 ξ) + cos(τ) = 0. Assume that directed motion is present and of the form ξ τ +... N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

20 Estimation of n Assume the oscillating terms of ξ are sub-dominant, ξ + sin(n 0 τ) + cos(τ) = 0, The above equation of motion is easily solved and has the general solution, ξ = a + bτ + sin(n 0τ) n 2 0 Consistent with our initial assumptions, + cos(τ), < ξ >= 1 < θ >= λφ2 r µ n = 2λφ2 r µ 2, which is consistent with numerical calculations. Now n > 1 φ r > 1 2λ µ, as a requirement for driven motion. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

21 Dynamics of θ after SSC Violated Driven motion ends friction term pushes θ towards the minima, SSC violated φ can t produce a non-zero n, θ oscillates around minima due to inflaton, If we assume sin θ θ after the driven motion has ended, Can approximate the amplitude of oscillations as, sin 2θ H, H d After the SSC is violated there is no net production or washout of the X asymmetry; cannot realise simultaneous violation of C, CP and X. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

22 The Generated Asymmetry N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

23 Allowed Parameter Ranges Maximum scalar baryon energy density, Utilising the SSC, this gives, Require Φ is unaffected by θ, Allowed range for φ r, Limits on H d, 3M 2 ph 2 λφ 4 r sin 2 θ. µ 2 Φ(t) λφ4 r Λ λ H H d φ2 r Λ GeV > φ r > µ/ 2λ λ > n > 1. H 0 > H d > GeV 310 > n > 1. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

24 Estimation of the Generated Asymmetry Generated asymmetry, η reh = n X s ( ) λφ 4 ( ) r ad. µt 3 reh a rh where the dilution factor is given by, ( ) 3 ad = a rh ( π 2 ) ( ) g T 4 rh 90 Hd 2M2 p. Using the SSC, H d = λφ2 r H 0Λ µ 2 Φ 0 2n GeV, η = ( ) T rh λ 10 8 GeV. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

25 Coupling φ to the SM Interpret the charge as lepton number, Introduce the lepton-number preserving dimension four interaction, L int = y L φ ν c Rν R + h.c. describing the decay of the complex scalar lepton into a ν R ν R pair. Can generate a large Majorana mass when φ = φ r / 2, depending on the value of y L. The leptonic scalar identified as part of the seesaw mechanism. N. D. Barrie (Kavli IPMU (WPI)) Ratchet Baryogenesis during Reheating February 17, / 27

26 Coupling φ to the SM Interpret as a baryonic scalar, Introduce the following interaction, which becomes, L int = i ( φ Λ 2 µ φ ) 1 (ūγ µ u + 3 dγ µ d ), L int = φ2 r Λ θ 1 ( u 2 u + d d ), 3 Analogous to a chemical potential coupling to the baryonic current, shifting in favour of matter or antimatter, where µ B = φ2 r Λ 2 θ.

Future work Further exploration of the mechanism Investigation of efficiency required. Other cosmological implications N. D.
