Adiabatic out-of-equilibrium solutions to the Boltzmann equation in warm inflation

Abstract We show that, in warm inflation, the nearly constant Hubble rate and temperature lead to an adiabatic evolution of the number density of particles interacting with the thermal bath, even if thermal equilibrium cannot be maintained. In this case, the number density is suppressed compared to...
