Production of scalar and tensor perturbations in inflationary models.
Scalar (density) and tensor (gravity-wave) perturbations provide the basis for the fundamental observable consequences of inflation, including CBR anisotropy and the fluctuations that seed structure formation. In general, these perturbations are nearly scale invariant (Harrison-Zel’dovich spectrum), though slight deviation from scale invariance (“tilt”) can have significant consequences for bot...
متن کاملScalar perturbations in a primordial inflationary scenario
We compute the spectral index for scalar perturbations generated in a primordial inflationary model. In this model, the transition of the inflationary phase to the radiative era is achieved through the decay of the cosmological term leading a second order phase transition and the characteristics of the model allow to implement a set of initial conditions where the perturbations display a therma...
متن کاملTensor perturbations in inflationary models as a probe of cosmology.
In principle, the tensor metric (gravity-wave) perturbations that arise in inflationary models can, beyond probing the underlying inflationary model, provide information about the Universe: ionization history, presence of a cosmological constant, and epoch of matter-radiation equality. Because tensor perturbations give rise to anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) solely through t...
متن کاملThe Scalar-Tensor Inflationary Cosmology
In this paper the scalar-tensor theory of gravity is assumed to describe the evolution of the universe and the gravitational scalar φ is ascribed to play the role of inflaton. The theory is characterized by the specified coupling function ω(φ) and the cosmological function λ(φ). The function λ(φ) is nearly constant for 0 < φ < 0.1 and λ(1) = 0. The functions λ(φ) and ω(φ) provide a double-well ...
متن کاملScalar field potential in inflationary models: Reconstruction and further constraints.
In this paper, we present quantitative constraints on the scalar field potential for a general class of inflationary models. (1) We first consider the reconstruction of the inflationary potential for given primordial density fluctuation spectra. Our work differs from previous work on reconstruction in that we find a semi-analytic solution for the potential for the case of density fluctuations w...
