Scale-dependent bias from multiple-field inflation
We provide a formula for the scaling behaviour of the inflationary bispectrum in the ‘squeezed’ limit where one momentum becomes much smaller than the other two. This determines the scaling of the halo bias at low wavenumber and will be an important observable for the next generation of galaxy surveys. Our formula allows it to be predicted for the first time for a generic inflationary model wit...
متن کاملMultiple field inflation
Inflation offers a simple model for very early evolution of our Universe and the origin of primordial perturbations on large scales. Over the last 25 years we have become familiar with the predictions of single-field models, but inflation with more than one light scalar field can alter preconceptions about the inflationary dynamics and our predictions for the primordial perturbations. I will di...
متن کاملScale–dependent Galaxy Bias
We present a simple heuristic model to demonstrate how feedback related to the galaxy formation process can result in a scale-dependent bias of mass versus light, even on very large scales. The model invokes the idea that galaxies form initially in locations determined by the local density field, but the subsequent formation of galaxies is also influenced by the presence of nearby galaxies that...
متن کاملIR Inflation from Multiple Branes
In this paper we examine the IR inflation scenario using the DBI action, where we have N multiple branes located near the tip of a warped geometry. At large N the solutions are similar in form to the more traditional single brane models, however we find that it is difficult to simultaneously satisfy the WMAP bounds on the scalar amplitude and the scalar spectral index. We go on to examine two n...
متن کاملInflation from multiple flat directions
We illustrate an example where multiple flat directions give rise to inflation with a help of non-minimal kinetic terms. We show that multiple fields can assist inflation irrespective of the field potentials which are expected to be lifted in the early Universe. We argue that inflation may proceed in this set-up even if individual potentials are too steep to sustain inflation on their own. We c...
