Stochastic wave equation with thermal noise in an expanding universe

Abstract: We discuss Einstein-Klein-Gordon system in an environment of an infinite number of scalar fields leading to an external thermal noise. In the lowest order of metric and field perturbations the quadratic fluctuations consist of a sum of quantum and thermal fluctuations. We show that these fluctuations depend on the form of the interaction of the inflaton with the environment.
