<strong>QCD</strong> <strong>in</strong>flation<br />
● Chiral symmetry restoration similar to <strong>in</strong>flation <strong>transition</strong><br />
● Allows <strong>in</strong> pr<strong>in</strong>ciple for an <strong>in</strong>flationary era with reheat<strong>in</strong>g<br />
● <strong>QCD</strong> <strong>phase</strong> <strong>transition</strong> not strong enough to give a<br />
measurable effect – too small surface tension (0.03-0.5?)<br />
