Dissipative effects in the Effective Field Theory of Inflation

D. LÓPEZ NACIR

Haute Provence, Peyresq

Workshop; Peyresq Physics 18 meeting; 2013

In this talk, after a brief introduction and the motivations, I will summarize the Effective Field Theory of inflation in the case of a single clock, and describe how we include the influence of additional degrees of freedom on the dynamics of the perturbations of the clock. Then, I will talk about the prediction that can be obtained within this framework, and I will mention one or two specific models that could be described with our phenomenological approach.
