Magnetogenesis from axion and dilaton electromagnetism in torsioned spacetime

Abstract

Recently much controversy has been shed on BICEP 2 experiments for the concerning this validity or not and a possible set of new experiments to detect primordial inflation and gravitational waves. Since gravitational waves imply the existence of primordial magnetic fields in this context, C Bonvin, R Durrer and R Marteens [Phys Rev Lett (2014)] have tried to associate the presence of primordial magnetic fields to BICEP 2 by making use of CMB tensor modes. Here we show that by considering torsion dilatonic lagrangean one obtains cosmological magnetic fields of the order of B10-10G which may seed galactic dynamos. Actually this new result came out of a mistake of a recent paper published by myself in JCAP (2014). These results are more in accordance with Bamba results [JCAP (2014)] in the context of teleparallel theory of gravity with Einstein's distant parallelism and torsion. These results also support Einstein-Cartan sort of theories of gravity from well-known recent data. Another example which supports the use of modified gravities with torsion to investigate magnetogenesis is the alternative exampleof using axions with transmutation into torsion to obtain cosmic magnetic seed bound of 10-12G.This coincides with the lower bound obtained by Barrow et al [Phys Rev D (2012)] in the interval of 10-20G to 10-12G in Friedmann universes.
