We study a baryogenesis mechanism operating in the context of hyperextended
inflation and making use of a coupling between the scalar field and a standard
model global current, such as B or B-L. The method is efficient at temperatures
at which these currents are not conserved due to some higher dimensional
operator. The particle physics and cosmological phenomenology are discussed. We
consider constraints stemming from nucleosynthesis and solar system
experiments.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure, uses RevTe
