The Affleck-Dine field is a complex scalar field carrying a $U(1)_{\\chi}$ charge which is dynamically broken after the end of inflation. This generates an excess of $\\chi$ over $\\bar \\chi$, which then decays into Standard Model fermions to produce an excess of baryons over anti-baryons. Our model is very constrained because the Affleck-Dine field has to be sufficiently flat during inflation. It is also a source for density fluctuations which can be tested in the coming satellite and balloon experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-08-27T16:43:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.10.Kk", "12.90.+b", "98.80.Cq" ], "keywords": [ "large extra spatial dimensions", "affleck-dine field", "large extra dimensions", "resembles affleck-dine baryogenesis", "standard model fermions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
