We explore non-adiabatic particle production in a de Sitter universe for a scalar spectator field, by allowing the effective mass $m^2(t)$ of this field and the cosmic time interval between non-adiabatic events to vary stochastically. Two…

We introduce a general variational framework to address the tunneling of hot Fermi systems. We use the representation of the trace of the imaginary time $\tau=it$ propagator as a functional integral type of a sum over complete sets of…
