• Inflation with stable anisotropic hair 

      Hervik, Sigbjørn; Mota, David F.; Thorsrud, Mikjel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Recently an inflationary model with a vector field coupled to the inflaton was proposed and the phenomenology studied for the Bianchi type I spacetime. It was found that the model demonstrates a counter-example to the ...
    • A study of inhomogeneous massless scalar gauge fields in cosmology 

      Normann, Ben David; Ricciardone, Angelo; Hervik, Sigbjørn; Thorsrud, Mikjel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Why is the Universe so homogeneous and isotropic? We summarize a general study of a γ-law perfect fluid alongside an inhomogeneous, massless scalar gauge field (with homogeneous gradient) in anisotropic spaces with General ...
