Matching the CDM growing mode at horizon entry
ID: matching-the-cdm-growing-mode-at-horizon-entry
In an instantaneous-transition approximation, match the superhorizon adiabatic CDM mode in radiation domination and its first derivative to the radiation-era logarithmic solution at . Its value is and its derivative is . The two matching equations give the displayed expression. Its coefficient two belongs to this approximation; a smooth radiation forcing through entry changes the constants while preserving the logarithmic CDM growth after radiation-era horizon entry scaling.
