Daemon decay and inflation

Abstract: Quantum tunneling in Reissner-Nordström geometry is studied and the tunneling rate is determined. A possible scenario for cosmic inflation, followed by reheating phases and subsequent radiation-domination expansion, is proposed.

“…An outgoing particle starting just inside the initial position of the horizon at r = 2M − δ (where δ is a small positive number) experiences a classically forbidden region and materializes just outside of the final position of the horizon at r = 2(M − ω) + δ. Tunneling of massless and massive particles through a smeared quantum horizon has also been examined in the case of black holes in non-commutative geometry by considering the effect of smearing of the particle's mass as a Gaussian profile in a flat space-time [3] or by extending the Parikh-Wilczek scheme to higher dimensional non-commutative geometry [4]. Quantum tunneling in a naked singularity setting in Reissner-Nordström geometry in the context of daemon decay has also been studied [5]. In Schwarzschild geometry and in Reissner-Nordström geometry (and, more generally, in Kerr-Newman geometry), the effective one-dimensional radial motion of massive (charged or not) particles (with non-zero angular momentum) has turning points which bound classically forbidden regions (in which the kinetic energy is negative).…”
