A New Universal Local Feature in the Inflationary Perturbation Spectrum
A model is developed in which the inflaton potential experiences a sudden small change in its second derivative (the effective mass of the inflaton). An exact treatment demonstrates that the resulting density perturbation has a quasi-flat power spectrum with a break in its slope (a step in ns). The step in the spectral index is modulated by characteristic oscillations and results in large runni...
متن کاملAn Inflationary Model with an Exact Perturbation Spectrum
We present a new, exact scalar field cosmology for which the spectrum of scalar (density) perturbations can be calculated exactly. We use this exact result to the probe the accuracy of approximate calculations of the perturbation spectrum. PACS: 04.20.Jb 98.80.C 1 [email protected]
متن کامل2 00 1 Robustness of the inflationary perturbation spectrum to trans - Planckian physics
It is investigated if predictions of the inflationary scenario regarding spectra of scalar and tensor perturbations generated from quantum vacuum fluctuations are robust with respect to a modification of the dispersion law for frequencies beyond the Planck scale. For a large class of such modifications of special and general relativity, for which the WKB condition is not violated at super-high ...
متن کاملInflationary parameters and primordial perturbation spectra ⋆
I discuss how parameters describing inflation in the very early universe may be related to primordial perturbation spectra. Precision observations of anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) such as those provided by the WMAP satellite offer an unprecedented window onto the physics of the very early universe. To theorists exploring speculative models of physics at high energies, th...
متن کاملPower Spectrum of Inflationary Attractors
Inflationary attractors predict the spectral index and tensor-to-scalar ratio to take specific values that are consistent with Planck. An example is the universal attractor for models with a generalised non-minimal coupling, leading to Starobinsky inflation. In this paper we demonstrate that it also predicts a specific relation between the amplitude of the power spectrum and the number of e-fol...
