Origins of Thermalization in Semiclassical Cosmology

We discuss the effect of accelerated frames in cosmology, and obtain origins of thermalization of the cosmic evolution of the semi-classical universe. We implement a transformation in super-space, and the WKB wave function defined on super space has a Bogoliubov transformation. In the transformed frame we find the density matrix which is mixed, and this is the sign of a thermal system. Whereas this result does not have the same interpretations of a particle thermalization in accelerated frames, one can show the super space transformation similar to a double Rindler transformation of real space-time coordinates. We also discuss the implications of the super-space transformation in loop quantum cosmology.
