Warped reheating in brane–antibrane inflation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We examine how reheating occurs after brane-antibrane inflation in warped geometries, such as those which have recently been considered for Type IIB string vacua. We adopt the standard picture that the energy released by brane annihilation is dominantly dumped into massive bulk (closed-string) modes which eventually cascade down into massless particles, but argue that the this need not mean that the result is mostly gravitons with negligible visible radiation on the Standard Model brane. Rather, in geometries having strongly warped throats we argue that this energy can instead be predominantly dumped into massless modes which are localized at the throat's tip, because of the exponential growth of the massive Kaluza-Klein wave functions there. The result is preferentially to reheat those branes which lay in the most strongly warped throats. We argue that the efficiency of this process removes a conceptual obstacle to the construction of multi-throat models, wherein inflation occurs in a different throat than the one in which the Standard Model brane resides. Such multi-throat models are desirable because they may resolve a difficulty in reconciling inflation with the supersymmetry breaking scale on the Standard Model brane, and because they may allow cosmic strings to be sufficiently long-lived to be observable during the present epoch.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
