Detection and Modelling of non-Gaussianity in MR Diffusion Imaging
This paper details the observation of non-Gaussian apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) profiles in multi-direction, diffusion-weighted MR data acquired with standard clinical imaging parameters (b ≈ 1000 s/mm 2). A technique is described for modelling the profile of the ADC over the sphere, which handles the higher order, non-Gaussian effects that can occur at, for example, intersections of di...
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 ...
متن کاملNon-Gaussianity after BICEP2.
We analyze primordial non-Gaussianity in single-field inflationary models when the tensor-to-scalar ratio is large. Our results show that detectable levels of non-Gaussianity f(NL) ∼ 50 are still possible in the simplest class of models described by the effective theory of inflation. However, the shape is very tightly constrained, making a sharp prediction that could be confirmed or falsified b...
متن کاملNon-Gaussianity from Inflation
Correlated adiabatic and isocurvature perturbation modes are produced during inflation through an oscillation mechanism when extra scalar degrees of freedom -other than the inflaton field are present. We show that this correlation generically leads to sizeable non-Gaussian features both in the adiabatic and isocurvature perturbations. The nonGaussianity is first generated by large non-lineariti...
