With the consideration of a fast expanding Universe in effect due to an additional scalar field, we present a study of leptogenesis in non-standard cosmology. The Hubble expansion rate is modified by the new added scalar field phi, which can change the abundance of lepton asymmetry resulted by the leptogenesis mechanism. We report a significant deviation from the standard unflavored leptogenesis scenario can be achieved in presence of the scalar field phi that dominates the energy budget of the early Universe. We present our results for leptogenesis from type-I seesaw with heavy right-handed Majorana neutrinos. The results are based on Boltzmann equations and effects of the scalar field are similar for other kinds of leptogenesis framework.
