Is warm inflation in Einstein Gravity quasi-stable: A thermodynamical description?
 
 

In the Neem Seminar, warm inflationary scenario will be discussed in the context of non-equilibrium thermodymanical description with particle creation mechanism. By choosing the thermodynamical system to be adiabatic in nature, it is found that quasi-stable nature of the radiation bath is not possible. So it is concluded that warm inflationary paradigm is not consistent with adiabatic thermodynamical description.
