Strange Work in Strange Places: Quantum Field Theory in Curved Space

Astronomers seem to be observing the fossilized remnants of quantum gravitational processes which took place during the epoch of {\it primordial inflation} that is conjectured to have occurred during the first \(10^{-32}\) seconds of cosmic history. We give a non-technical description of what causes...

description Astronomers seem to be observing the fossilized remnants of quantum gravitational processes which took place during the epoch of {\it primordial inflation} that is conjectured to have occurred during the first \(10^{-32}\) seconds of cosmic history. We give a non-technical description of what causes these processes and how they become preserved to survive to the current epoch. We also discuss some of the secondary effects which should result.
