Numerical simulation of evolution of a multi-dimensional Higgs field in the new inflationary scenario

  • 1. Tokyo Univ. (Japan). Dept. of Physics

Description

Numerical simulation of the evolution of the adjoint Higgs field in the new inflationary universe scenario based on the SU(5) GUT model with the Coleman-Weinberg potential is carried out by introducing a suitable viscosity term in the equation of motion. It is found that in order for a consistent scenario of the universe without too large density inhomogeneity to be constructed, the value of viscosity should lie in an appropriate range. (Auth.)
