TITLE: Energy Content of Gravitation as a Way to Quantify Both Entropy and Information Generation in the Early Universe
AUTHORS: Andrew Walcott Beckwith
KEYWORDS: Graviton, Hubble Parameter, Entropy Generation

ABSTRACT: Based upon Alcubierre’s formalism about energy flux of gravitational waves, as well as Saunder’s treatment of temperature dependence of the Hubble parameter in the early universe, we initiate a particle count treatment of gravitons, and subsequent entropy generation which gives, via the standard model treatment of the FRW metric a way to explain/justify a value of entropy of the order of S～106-107 at the very onset of inflation.
