Description
I will discuss how inflationary vacuum can be embedded in a visible sector physics. I will provide a new test for inflationary paradigm at the LHC along with the standard cosmological observations. If end of inflation has to create the matter content of the universe we see today, then how would it excite the Standard Model quarks and leptons and create dark matter which can be tested at the collider, direct and indirect experiments.
