文摘We study reheating in some one and two field realizations of fibre inflation.We find that reheating begins with a phase of preheating in which long wavelength fluctuation modes are excited.In two field models there is a danger that the parametric amplification of infrared fluctuations in the second scalar field-associated with an entropy mode-might induce an instability of the curvature fluctuations.We show that,at least in the models we consider,the entropy mode has a sufficiently large mass to prevent this instability.Hence,from the point of view of reheating the models we consider are well-behaved.
