متن کاملThe inflationary prediction for primordial non-gaussianity
We extend the δN formalism so that it gives all of the stochastic properties of the primordial curvature perturbation ζ if the initial field perturbations are gaussian. The calculation requires only the knowledge of some family of unperturbed universes. A formula is given for the normalisation fNL of the bispectrum of ζ, which is the main signal of non-gaussianity. Examples of the use of the fo...
متن کاملNon-gaussianity of inflationary field perturbations from the field equation
We calculate the tree-level bispectrum of the inflaton field perturbation directly from the field equations, and construct the corresponding fNL parameter. Our results agree with previous ones derived from the Lagrangian. We argue that quantum theory should only be used to calculate the correlators when they first become classical a few Hubble times after horizon exit, the classical evolution t...
متن کاملNon Gaussianity of General Multiple-Field Inflationary Models
Using the “δN -formalism”, We obtain the expression of the non Gaussianity of multiple-field inflationary models with the nontrivial field-space metric. Further, we rewritten the result by using the slowrolling approximation. Finally, using our result, we calculate the nonlinear parameter of the racetrack inflationary model.

متن کاملNon-Gaussianity from preheating.
We consider a two-field model for inflation where the second order metric perturbations can be amplified by a parametric resonance during preheating. We demonstrate that there can arise a considerable enhancement of non-Gaussianity sourced by the local terms generated through the coupled perturbations. We argue that the non-Gaussianity parameter could be as large as f(NL) approximately 50. Our ...
