Non-thermal histories for the early universe have received notable attention as they are a rich source of phenomenology, while also being well motivated by top-down approaches to beyond the Standard Model physics. The early (pre-BBN) matter…

We consider the evolution of cosmological perturbations at the QCD transition, in particular the sudden reheating from a supercooled universe to the transition temperature. Sudden reheating happens at a specific temperature, hence density,…

We investigate the effects of large scalar inhomogeneities during the kination epoch, a period in which the universe's dynamics are dominated by the kinetic energy of a scalar field, by fully evolving the Einstein equations using numerical…

We study perturbations of a complex scalar field during reheating with no self-interaction in the regime $ \mu \gg H$, when the scalar field has a fast oscillatory behaviour (close to a pressure-less fluid). We focus on the precise…

Systems that exhibit pattern formation are typically driven and dissipative. In the early universe, parametric resonance can drive explosive particle production called preheating. The fields that are populated then decay quantum…

The relative flow of the Schwarzschild vs. the proper time during the classical evolution of a collapsing shell in the Schwarzschild coordinates practically forces us to interpret black hole formation as a highly non-local quantum process…
