General double monodromy inflation

چکیده
We revisit the roller-coaster cosmology based on multiple stages of monodromy inflation. Working within framework effective flux field theory, we include full range strong coupling corrections to inflaton sector. find that flattened potentials $V\ensuremath{\sim}{\ensuremath{\phi}}^{p}+\ensuremath{\cdots}$ with $p\ensuremath{\lesssim}1/2$, limited $N\ensuremath{\lesssim}25\ensuremath{-}40$ $e$-folds in first stage inflation, continue fit cosmic microwave background. They yield $0.96\ensuremath{\lesssim}{n}_{s}\ensuremath{\lesssim}0.97$ and produce relic gravity waves $0.006\ensuremath{\lesssim}r\ensuremath{\lesssim}0.035$, agreement most recent bounds from BICEP/Keck. The nonlinear derivative generated by dynamics theory (EFT) also lead equilateral non-Gaussianity ${f}_{\mathrm{NL}}^{\mathrm{eq}}\ensuremath{\simeq}\mathcal{O}(1)\ensuremath{-}\mathcal{O}(10)$, close current observational bounds. Finally, multistage roller coaster, an inflaton--hidden sector $U(1)$ can a tachyonic chiral vector background, which converts rapidly into tensors during short interruption matter domination. produced stochastic are chiral, so they may be clearly identifiable wave instruments like LISA, Big Bang Observer, Einstein Telescope, NANOgrav, or SKA, depending precise model realization. point out attempts resolve ${H}_{0}$ tension using early dark energy generically raise ${n}_{s}$. This might significantly alter impact BICEP/Keck data models

Oscillations in the CMB from Axion Monodromy Inflation
We study the CMB observables in axion monodromy inflation. These well-motivated scenarios for inflation in string theory have monomial potentials over super-Planckian field ranges, with superimposed sinusoidal modulations from instanton effects. Such periodic modulations of the potential can drive resonant enhancements of the correlation functions of cosmological perturbations, with characteris...
متن کاملMonodromy in the CMB: Gravity Waves and String Inflation
We present a simple mechanism for obtaining large-field inflation, and hence a gravitational wave signature, from string theory compactified on twisted tori. For Nil manifolds, we obtain a leading inflationary potential proportional to φ 2/3 in terms of the canonically normalized field φ, yielding predictions for the tilt of the power spectrum and the tensor-to-scalar ratio, n s ≈ 0.98 and r ≈ ...
متن کاملGravity Waves and Linear Inflation from Axion Monodromy
Wrapped branes in string compactifications introduce a monodromy that extends the field range of individual closed-string axions to beyond the Planck scale. Furthermore, approximate shift symmetries of the system naturally control corrections to the axion potential. This suggests a general mechanism for chaotic inflation driven by monodromy-extended closedstring axions. We systematically analyz...
متن کاملDouble-field inflation.
We present an inflationary universe model which utilizes two coupled real scalar fields. The inflation field φ experiences a first order phase transition and its potential dominates the energy density of the Universe during the inflationary epoch. This field φ is initially trapped in its metastable minimum and must tunnel through a potential barrier to reach the true vacuum. The second auxiliar...
متن کاملDouble D-term inflation
Comparisons of cosmological models to current data show that the presence of a nontrivial feature in the primordial power spectrum of fluctuations, around the scale k ∼ 0.05hMpc−1, is an open and exciting possibility, testable in a near future. This could set new constraints on inflationary models. In particular, current data favour a ΛCDM model with a steplike spectrum, and more power on small...
