Primordial Gravitational Waves and Reheating in a New Class of Plateau-Like Inflationary Potentials (2018)
Journal Article
Chongchitnan, S. (2018). Primordial Gravitational Waves and Reheating in a New Class of Plateau-Like Inflationary Potentials. Universe, 4(7), Article 77. https://doi.org/10.3390/universe4070077

We study a new class of inflation model parametrized by the Hubble radius, such that aH∝exp(−αφ)n. These potentials are plateau-like, and reduce to the power-law potentials in the simplest case n=2. We investigate the range of model parameters that i... Read More about Primordial Gravitational Waves and Reheating in a New Class of Plateau-Like Inflationary Potentials.

Inflation model building with an accurate measure of e-folding (2016)
Journal Article
Chongchitnan, S. (2016). Inflation model building with an accurate measure of e-folding. Physical Review D, 94(4), Article 043526. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.94.043526

It has become standard practice to take the logarithmic growth of the scale factor as a measure of the amount of inflation, despite the well-known fact that this is only an approximation for the true amount of inflation required to solve the horizon...

On the abundance of extreme voids (2015)
Journal Article
Chongchitnan, S. (2015). On the abundance of extreme voids. Journal of cosmology and astroparticle physics, May(05), 062-062. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2015/05/062

Cosmic voids have been shown to be an effective probe of cosmology, complementary to galaxy clusters. In this work, we present a simple theoretical framework for predicting of the size of the largest voids expected within a given redshift and volume....

The Lyman α forest as a tool for disentangling non-Gaussianities (2014)
Journal Article
Chongchitnan, S. (2014). The Lyman α forest as a tool for disentangling non-Gaussianities. Journal of cosmology and astroparticle physics, 2014(10), Article ARTN 034. https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2014/10/034

© 2014 IOP Publishing Ltd and Sissa Medialab srl . Detection of primordial non-Gaussianity will give us an unprecedented detail of the physics of inflation. As observational probes are now exploring new expanses of the inflationary landscape, it is c... Read More about The Lyman α forest as a tool for disentangling non-Gaussianities.

Constraining isocurvature perturbations with the 21 cm emission from minihaloes (2014)
Journal Article
Takeuchi, Y., & Chongchitnan, S. (2014). Constraining isocurvature perturbations with the 21 cm emission from minihaloes. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 439(1), 1125-1135. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stu059

We investigate the effects of isocurvature perturbations on the 21 cm radiation from minihaloes (MHs) at high redshifts and examine constraints on the isocurvature amplitude and power spectrum using the next generation of radio telescopes such as the...

The effect of cosmic magnetic fields on the metagalactic ionization background inferred from the Lyman α forest (2013)
Journal Article
Chongchitnan, S., & Meiksin, A. (2014). The effect of cosmic magnetic fields on the metagalactic ionization background inferred from the Lyman α forest. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 437(4), 3639-3646. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt2169

The sources which reionized the intergalactic medium by redshift ̃6 are still unknown. A severe constraint on the ionization process is the low emissivity required to maintain the ionization in the Lya forest. Simulation-calibrated observations sugge...
