Relaxing the cosmological moduli problem by low-scale inflation
Abstract We show that the cosmological abundance of string axions is much smaller than naive estimates if the Hubble scale of inflation, H inf , is sufficiently low (but can still be much higher than the axion masses) and if the inflation lasts sufficiently long. The reason is that the initial misal...
