Analysis

This paper explores the use of Wehrl entropy, derived from the Husimi distribution, to analyze the entanglement structure of the proton in deep inelastic scattering, going beyond traditional longitudinal entanglement measures. It aims to incorporate transverse degrees of freedom, providing a more complete picture of the proton's phase space structure. The study's significance lies in its potential to improve our understanding of hadronic multiplicity and the internal structure of the proton.
Reference

The entanglement entropy naturally emerges from the normalization condition of the Husimi distribution within this framework.

Gapped Unparticles in Inflation

ArXiv

Analysis

This paper explores a novel scenario for a strongly coupled spectator sector during inflation, introducing "gapped unparticles." It investigates the phenomenology of these particles, which combine properties of particles and unparticles, and how they affect primordial density perturbations. The paper's significance lies in its exploration of new physics beyond the standard model and its potential to generate observable signatures in the cosmic microwave background.
Reference

The phenomenology of the resulting correlators presents some novel features, such as oscillations with an envelope controlled by the anomalous dimension, rather than the usual value of 3/2.

Gravity-Driven Reheating in Higgs Inflation

Analysis

This paper investigates a mechanism for reheating the universe after inflation, focusing on a Higgs inflationary scenario. It explores how gravitational effects alone can create particles and initiate the standard thermal history, particularly in models without direct inflaton couplings. The study's significance lies in providing a potential solution to the reheating problem in minimal inflationary models, demonstrating that gravity can play a crucial role in the early universe's evolution.
Reference

The rapid, oscillatory evolution of the curvature scalar after inflaton acts as a time dependent gravitational pump, creating scalar spectator particles even in the absence of explicit interactions.
