Fluctuations in the mass and decay rate of a heavy particle which for some period dominates the energy density of the universe are known to lead to adiabatic density perturbations. We show that generically the annihilation cross section of…

The effects that large scale fluctuations had on small scale isothermal modes at the epoch of recombination are analysed. We find that: (a) Albeit the fact that primordial fluctuations were at this epoch still well in the linear regime, a…

The Universe's early thermal history is poorly constrained, and it is possible that it underwent a period of early matter domination driven by a heavy particle or an oscillating scalar field that decayed into radiation before the onset of…
