The first second of leptons
We study the influence of lepton asymmetries on the evolution of the early Universe. The lepton asymmetry l is poorly constrained by observations and might be orders of magnitudes larger than the observed baryon asymmetry b~O(10^{-10}), |l|/b~O(10^9). We find that lepton asymmetries large compared …
