Gravitinos, the Lithium problem, and DM production: Is there a corresponding neutrino physics linkage?

Studies are cited indicating that gravitino production acts as a natural upper bound to Li6 and Li7 levels, based on what happens after hadronic decay of relic 1 TeV into 100 GeV gravitinos at 1000 s. after the Big Bang. The produced gravitinos contribute a large fraction of required dark matter density. Whether or not gravitinos can be linked to neutrino production depends on which model of dark matter (DM) is assumed or used. A model presented by the author in 2008 links DM of about 100 GeV -- based on a phenomenological Lagrangian creating different Neutrino masses without SUSY -- with a dark matter candidate of about 100 GeV. This may tie in 100 GeV gravitinos with neutrino physics.

Entropy growth in the early universe and confirmation of initial big bang conditions (Why the quark-gluon model is not the best analogy)

This paper shows how increased entropy values from an initially low big bang level can be measured experimentally by counting relic gravitons. Furthermore the physical mechanism of this entropy increase is explained via analogies with early-universe phase transitions. The rapid increase in entropy so alluded to without near sudden increases up to 10 to the 88 power may be enough to allow successful modeling of relic graviton production for entropy in a manner similar to zero point energy extraction from a vacuum state

Relic High Frequency Gravitational waves from the Big Bang, and How to Detect Them

We show conditions for HFGW detection, employing an entropy concept written up by Jack Ng, and Steinhard's proceedure for reconstructing tensorial representations for relic HFGW from the onset of the big bang. The issue of the reality of gravitons as a measurable physical object which was raised by Rothman in 2006 is indirectly answered via a proceedure obtained from Weinberg's 1972 book on gravitation, and all the methodologies so obtained are referenced with respect to engineering specifications of the Li-Baker HFGW detector. In addition, the document also refers to entanglement entropy, and its possible aid in refining measurement predictions. Finally, commentary about HFGW and relic neutrino physics data sets is included, with regards to inflationary model candidates

An open question: Are topological arguments helpful in setting initial conditions for transport problems and quantization criteria/ quantum computing for Density Wave physics?

We present derived I-E curves that match Zenier curves used to fit data experimentally with wavefunctionals congruent with the false vacuum hypothesis. The open question is whether the coefficients picked in both the wavefunctionals and the magnitude of the coefficients of the driven sine Gordon physical system should be picked by topological charge arguments that in principle appear to assign values that have a tie in with the false vacuum hypothesis first presented by Sidney Coleman. Our supposition is that indeed this is useful and that the topological arguments give evidence as to a first order phase transition which gives credence to the observed and calculated I-E curve as evidence of a quantum switching phenomena in density wave physics, one which we think with further development would have applications to quantum computing, via quantum coherent phase evolution, as outlined in this paper . This analysis is enhanced by a new phi to the fourth power field theory treatment of how to model field theory in real time evolution as given to the Author by Dr. Fred Cooper as part of a meeting in KITP, UCSB in early 2008

Symmetries In Evolving Space-time and Their Connection To High-frequency Gravity Wave Production

We present how a worm hole bridge from a prior to the present universe allows us to use symmetry arguments which allow us to generate relic gravity waves, and also non massless gravitons. The relic gravitons are produced due to thermal / vacuum energy transferral from a prior universe using a pseudo time dependent version of the Wheeler De Witt equation as presented by Crowell (2005)

Implications for the Cosmological Landscape: Can Thermal Inputs from a Prior Universe Account for Relic Graviton Production?

We present a way to accomodate relic graviton production via worm hole transitions of prior universe thermal / energy density values to our present universe. This is done in the context of providing a mechanism for thermally driven relic gravitons, and also to explain how Park's 2003 observation as to how a thermally scaled vacuum energy value plays a role in forming the early universe emergent field dynamics

Toward a Mininum Criteria of Multi Dimensional Instanton Formation for Condensed Matter Systems?

Our paper generalizes techniques initially explicitly developed for CDW applications only with respect to what is needed for multi dimensional instantons forming in complex condensed matter applications. This involves necessary conditions for formulation of a soliton- anti soliton pair,assuming a minimum distance between charge centers, and discusses the prior density wave physics example as to why a Pierels gap term is added to the tilted washboard potential for insuring the formation of scalar potential fields . We state that much the same methodology is needed for higher dimensional condensed matter systems/ giving an explicit reference to two dimensional instantons as presented by Lu, and indicating further development in higher dimensions is warranted

Instanton Packet Formation via a Wormhole Bridge between a Prior to our Present Universe, and criteria for their possible break up

We present a criteria for necessary conditions for instanton formation of an energy packet from a prior to our present universe, using the Reissnor-Nordstrom metric which is congruent with Crowell's pseudo time evolution version of Wheeler De Witt equation. This is based upon Wesson's (1999) treatment of instanton formation in five dimensional cosmologies. Criteria for break up of this instanton is proposed due to a causal barrier derived from first principles From the Friedmann equation for scale factor evolution, with a discussion of how this can be linked to Seth Lloyd's treatment of computational bits of 'information' in different periods of inflationary cosmology

Penrose Model potential, compared with Coleman-Weinberg Potential for early universe scalar evolution

We present an overview of Dr. Penrose's model of a cyclic universe, minus the big crunch which relies upon black hole collection of matter after an a long term expansion phase from an initial big bang . We affirm that the suggested evolution equation presented at his lecture for his model meets requirements as to an emergent quintessence field from a vacuum state . We try to offer suggestions as to how to investigate his controversial conformal mapping of matter/energy via Hawkings radiation from a potentially infinite number of black holes to a new big bang. This is his 'ripples in a pond' effect which we find highly unusual but worth serious study and investigation.

Symmetries in evolving space time from present to prior universes

We wish to demonstrate how the presence of a dynamic cosmological parameter, plus a model of the universe as a quantum computer can be combined to give us a picture of early universe inflationary physics which is quite non linear, with a distinct bifurcation. We claim that the bifurcation is linked to conditions which falsify initial conditions for casually continuous space times in the bridge between pre inflation to inflationary cosmology. And also give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a wormhole bridge between a prior contracting universe, and our present universe via a time dependent version of the Wheeler DeWitt equation.

Using quantum computing models for graviton communication/information processing in cosmological evolution

In 2001, Seth Lloyd presented a radical new critique of the universe as a quantum computing device, with an upper limit of bit calculations of the order of 10 to the 120 power. We find that his calculations permit us to reconcile the existance of a huge cosmological constant 10 to the minus 43 seconds after the big bang, with a resulting huge relic graviton flux, with the existance of a CMBR observational barrier of z = 1100 years after the big bang. Lloyd's calculations pre suppose the existence of a huge entropy value during the nucleation of a new universe, a datum we think helps shed light on the cosmological landscape problem.

How can Brane World physics influence Axion temperature dependence, initial vacuum states, and permissible solutions to the Wheeler-De Witt equation?

We are investigating if the Jeans instability criteria mandading a low entropy,low temperature initial pre inflation state configuration can be recociled with thermal conditions of temperature at or above ten to the 12 power Kelvin, or higher,when cosmic inflation physics takes over. We justify this by pointing to the Akshenkar, Pawlowski, and Singh (2006) article about a prior universe being modeled via their quantum bounce which states that this prior universe geometrically can be modeled via a discretized Wheeler - De Witt equation. This allows a way of getting around the fact that conventional cosmological CMB is limited by a barrier as of a red shift limit of about z = 1000,as to photons, and to come up with a working model of quintessence scalar fields which permits relic generation of dark matter/dark energy as well as relic gravitons.

Can thermal input from a prior universe account for relic graviton production?

Primer for how intense graviton production can be obtained in the first 10 to the minus 43 seconds of cosmological inflation. In addition several cosmological models which appear to have conclusions which are orthogonal, i.e. LQG and its quantum bounce and Brane world models which appear to rule out quantum bounce behavior, are shown to in part blend into each other as a direct solution to how to reconcile S. Carroll's prediction of low temperature, low entropy as a starting point of cosmological inflation with the ten to the 12 power degree kelvin behavior seen at the onset of Guth style chaotic inflation.

How a Randall-Sundrum Brane-World Effective Potential Influences Inflation Physics

In string theory, even when there are ten to the thousand power vacuum states, does inflation produce overwhelmingly one preferred type of vacuum state? We respond affirmatively to questions whether existence of graviton production is confirmable using present detector methodology. We use an explcity Randall-Sundrum brane world effective potential as congruent with an inflationary quadratic potential start. This occurs after the Bogomolnyi inequality eliminates the need for the ad hoc assumption of axion wall mass high temperature related dissapearance. Graviton production has explicit links with a five-dimensional brane-world negavit cosmological constant and a four dimensional positive valued cosmological constant, whose temperature dependence permits an early universe graviton production activyt burst. We show how di quarks, wave functions, and various geometrical forms tien into the WHeeler-De Witt equation. This permits investigating a discrete quantum bounce and a possible link to the initial phase of the present universe's evolution as a converse to a prior universe's collapse to the bounce point-the initial starting point to inflationary expansion. This opens a possibility of realstically investigating gravitons as part of a space propusion systme and deal iwth problems resulting from a beam of gravity waves, which would create a g-force because the geodestic structure is near field. It can be applied to existing and to new space propulsion concepts.

Inherent Limitations of Ice Cube with Regards to Both CP Violation Physics, and Data Collection

We examine how ICE CUBE is impacted via definite observational limits, a potentially serious flaw in estimated collection ability as predicted by a short fall in Monte Carlo simulations, and a datum that the CP violations connected with Baryogenesis are not predicted by SUSY accurately. All these considerations, plus the known datum that water is a superior medium for data collection than block ice argue pervasively in first building neutrino physics collection systems first in the Mediterranean sea, and relying upon ICECUBE as a back up to planned and running systems in place near Europe. This is made urgent also in the known datum that both the near European sub continent facilities now have bio luminence problems in the water, but have the same sensitivity as the South polar region neutrino astrophysics facilities now planned for

Extra Dimensions, Brane Worlds, and the Vanishing of Axion Contributions to Inflation?

We examine from first principles the implications of the 5th Randall-Sundrum Brane world dimension in terms of setting initial conditions for chaotic inflationary physics. Our model pre supposes that the inflationary potential pioneered by Guth is equivalent in magnitute in its initial inflationary state to the effective potential presented in the Randall-Sundrum model. We also consider an axion contribution to chaotic inflation(which may have a temperature dependence) which partly fades out up to the point of chaotic inflation being matched to a Randall-Sundrum effective potential. If we reject an explicitly axion mass drop off to infinitesimal values at high temperatures, we may use the Bogomolnyi inequality to rescale and re set initial conditions for the chaotic inflationary potential. One of the potential systems embedded in the Randall-Sundrum brane world is a model with a phase transition bridge from a tilted wasboard potiential to the chaotic inflationary model pioneered by Guth which is congruent with the slow roll criteria. If, as written up earlier, the axion wall contribution is due to di-quarks,this is equivalent to tying in baryogenesis to the formation of chaotic inflation initial conditions, with the Randall-Sundrum brane world effective dileneating the end of the dominant role of di-quarks, and the beginning of inflation.

Extension of Interesting Question I raised about 'Momentum' K of a Geodestic g at the J.A. Wheeler Astro physics School with possible numerical modeling of Deformations of Light Cones

I present the background of a question I asked Richard Matzner at the John Wheeler astrophysics school in Erice, at the Majorana institute of scientific culture during May 31st -June 8th. with an extension of the question to the issue of possible light cone deformation. This possibly has relevance to the stability of numerical algorithms used in modeling gravitational waves from Schwartzshield metric solutions of black holes and similar objects. This involves the so called momentum K of a geodestic g, with its re casting in a Kerr shield co ordinates of the Schwartzshield metric. for two black holes which have anti parallel spins but which exhibit spin coupling between them.

A New S-S' Pair Creation Rate Expression Improving Upon Zener Curves for I-E Plots

To simplify phenomenology modeling used for charge density wave (CDW)transport, we apply a wavefunctional formulation of tunneling Hamiltonians to a physical transport problem characterized by a perturbed washboard potential. To do so, we consider tunneing between states that are wavefunctionals of a scalar quantum field. I-E curves that match Zener curves - used to fit data experimentally with wavefunctionals congruent with the false vacuum hypothesis. This has a very strong convergence with electron-positron pair production representations.The similarities in plot behavior of the current values after the threshold electric field values argue in favor of the Bardeen pinning gap paradigm proposed for quasi-one-dimensional metallic transport problems.
