Abstract:
We use nonequilibrium renormalization group (RG) techniques to analyse the thermalization process in quantum field theory, and, by extension, reheating after inflation. Even if at a high scale Λ the theory is described by a non-dissipative λφ4 theory, and the RG running induces nontrivial noise and dissipation. For long wavelength and slowly varying field configurations, the noise and dissipation are white and ohmic, respectively. The theory will then tend to thermalize to an effective temperature given by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. © 2007 IOP Publishing Ltd.
