Scalar field couplings to quadratic curvature and decay into gravitons
Abstract Any field, even if it lives in a completely hidden sector, interacts with the visible sector at least via the gravitational interaction. In this paper, we show that a scalar field in such a hidden sector generically couples to the quadratic curvature via dimension five operators, i.e., ϕR 2...
