Letter: Thermodynamical Properties of Metric Fluctuations During Inflation

摘要

I study a thermodynamical approach to scalar metric perturbations during the inflationary stage. In the power-law expanding universe here studied, I find a negative heat capacity as a manifestation of superexponential growing for the number of states in super Hubble scales. The power spectrum depends on the Gibbons-Hawking and Hagedorn temperatures.
