Long-Wavelength Modes of Cosmological Scalar Fields
We give a numerical analysis of long-wavelength modes in the WKB
approximation of cosmological scalar fields coupled to gravity via
. Massless fields are coupled conformally at .
Conformality can be preserved for fields of nonzero mass by shifting . We
discuss implications for density perturbations.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures, several stylistic improvement
