英文摘要 | Stochastic gravitational wave backgrounds receive increasing attention and provide a new possibility to directly probe the early Universe. In the preheating process at the end of inflation, parametric resonance can generate large energy density perturbations and efficiently produce gravitational waves (GWs) which carry unique information about inflation. Since the peak frequency of such GWs is approximately proportional to the inflationary energy scale, Lambda(inf), GWs from preheating are expected to be observed by interferometer GW detectors in low-scale inflationary models. We investigate a class of preheating models where the effective potential has a quadratic minimum, and the dependence of the amplitude of such GWs on Lambda(inf), then find that the present energy spectrum of these GWs does not depend on Lambda(inf) except in the case where Lambda(inf) is above a critical value Lambda(c)-a parameter depending on the resonance strength. We numerically obtain Lambda(c) in terms of the model parameters in a linear approximation and then conduct lattice simulations to verify this result. For Lambda(inf) less than or similar to Lambda(c), the amplitude of GWs quickly decreases with Lambda(inf) and becomes challenging to observe. In turn, observing such GWs in interferometer detectors also helps to determine Lambda(inf) and the resonance strength during the preheating. |
