53. In 11-dimentional SUGRA, the axions correspond to the massless modes of the third-rank antisymmetric tensor C= bÎÎdx11â§dxÎâ§dxÎ+bIâ '11ωαÎ*Idx11â§dyÎ ±â§dyÎ*, where x11 is the coordinate of the so-called aœeleventh-segment,a i.e. the one extra dimension which is somewhat larger than the others.

55. The exception is the case when the curvature of the curvaton potential in the minimum also vanishes.

61. This requirement may be even more fundamental in origin. Indeed, a PNGB with rapidly varying order parameter cannot be treated as an effectively free field. We would like to thank D.H. Lyth for pointing this out.

77. For cosmic temperatures which are much higher than ÎQCDâ ‰200aŠaŠMeV, the zero-temperature mass of the axion ma must be replaced by the finite-temperature mass: ma(T)âma(ÎQCD/T)4. However, in our case, it turns out that the relevant temperatures are never too high for temperature corrections to be vital. This is due to the large values of fa encountered here. So, the use of the zero-temperature axion mass is adequate for our rough order-of-magnitude estimates. Moreover, in the interesting case where the onset of axion oscillations takes place during curvaton domination (see Sec. 8), the temperatures involved are even smaller and temperature corrections to the axion mass do not come into effect.
