Dark-matter particles and baryons from inflation and spontaneous CP violation in the early universe
Abstract
We present aspects of a model which attempts to unify the creation of cold dark matter, a CP-violating baryon asymmetry, and also a small, residual vacuum energy density, in the early universe. The model contains a primary scalar (inflaton) field and a primary pseudoscalar field, which are initially related by a cosmological, chiral symmetry. The nonzero vacuum expectation value of the pseudoscalar field spontaneously breaks CP invariance.
