  • 1. School of Physics, University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad, A.P. 500 046 (India)

Description

Quantum fluctuations in the post-inflationary Affleck-Dine baryogenesis model are studied. The squeezed states formalism is used to give evolution equations for the particle and antiparticle modes in the early universe. The role of expansion and parametric amplification of the quantum fluctuations on the baryon asymmetry produced is investigated.
