Abstract

We show that the ''turbulent'' particle spectra found in numerical simulations of the behavior of matter fields during reheating admit a simple interpretation in terms of hydrodynamic models of the reheating period. We predict a particle number spectrum nkkαn_{k}\propto k^{-\alpha} with α2\alpha \sim 2 for k0.k\to 0.
