Warm Inflation
Abstract
Assuming a first order phase transition during inflation, a model scenario is described which does not require a tiny coupling constant. Thermal equilibrium is closely maintained as inflation commences. No large scale reheating is necessary. Solutions for N> 70 are found for any δ / in the range 10-5 - 10-3.
