Production of high-energy gravitinos during preheating

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We present a new technique for the calculation of helicity ±1/2\pm 1/2 gravitino production during preheating. It is based on the equivalence between goldstinos and helicity ±1/2\pm 1/2 gravitinos at high energies. The problem is thus reduced to the standard (Majorana) fermion production after inflation. Comparison with the results obtained in the unitary gauge is also presented.
