Fibre Inflation: Observable Gravity Waves from IIB String Compactifications
We introduce a simple string model of inflation, in which the inflaton field can take trans-Planckian values while driving a period of slow-roll inflation. This leads naturally to a realisation of large field inflation, inasmuch as the inflationary epoch is well described by the single-field scalar potential V = V0 ( 3− 4e−φ̂/ √ 3 ) . Remarkably, for a broad class of vacua all adjustable paramet...
متن کاملGravity 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 in terms of the canonically normalized field φ, yielding predictions for the tilt of the power spectrum and the tensor-to-scalar ratio, ns ≈ 0.98 and r ≈ 0.04 ...
متن کاملInflation versus cyclic predictions for spectral tilt.
We present a nearly model-independent estimate that yields the predictions of a class of simple inflationary and ekpyrotic or cyclic models for the spectral tilt of the primordial density inhomogeneities that enables us to compare the two scenarios. Remarkably, we find that the two produce an identical result, n(s) approximately 0.95. For inflation, the same estimate predicts a ratio of tensor ...
متن کاملSpherical Scalar Waves and Gravity { Red Shift
This article investigates the interaction of a spherically symmetric massless scalar eld with a strong gravitational eld. It focuses on the propagation of waves in regions outside any horizons. The two factors acting on the waves can be identiied as a redshift and a backscattering. The innuence of backscattering on the intensity of the outgoing radiation is studied and rigorous quantitative upp...
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 ≈ ...
