Abstract
We study cosmological implications of supersymmetric axion models in which the axion scale is generated radiatively. Such models lead to the so-called thermal inflation and subsequent reheating should be constrained not to yield to a too large axion energy density at the time of nucleosynthesis. We examine how plausible it is that this nucleosynthesis constraint is satisfied for both hadronic and Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitskii type axion models. Baryogenesis and the possibility for raising up the cosmological upper bound on the axion scale in thermal inflation scenario are also discussed.
