paradigm can accommodate multiple low inflation scales

چکیده
Recent arguments show that some curvaton field may generate the cosmological curvature perturbation. As the curvaton is independent of the inflaton field, there is a hope that the fine-tunings of inflation models can be cured by the curvaton scenario. More recently, however, D.H.Lyth discussed that there is a strong bound for the Hubble parameter during inflation even if one assumes the curvaton scenario. Although the most serious constraint was evaded, the bound seems rather crucial for many models of a low inflation scale. In this paper we try to remove the constraint. We show that the bound is drastically modified if there were multiple stages of inflation.

accommodate a low inflation scale ?
The cosmological curvature perturbation may be generated when some ‘curvaton’ field, different from the inflaton, oscillates in a background of unperturbed radiation. In its simplest form the curvaton paradigm requires the Hubble parameter during inflation to be bigger than 10 GeV, but this bound may be evaded if the curvaton field (or an associated tachyon) is strongly coupled to a field which...

متن کاملThreshold Effects in the Monetary Policy Reaction Function: Evidence from Central Bank of Iran
Determining how monetary policy makers react to changes in key economic variables has been of major interest to monetary economists. Estimates of monetary policy rules (reaction functions) are a widely used method for doing this. Behavior differs under different policy regimes, as in rule-based systems or chronic inflation. In practice, estimates of instrument rules have been used to descri...
متن کاملParticle physics models of inflation
Inflation models are compared with observation on the assumption that the curvature perturbation is generated from the vacuum fluctuation of the inflaton field. The focus is on single-field models with canonical kinetic terms, classified as smallmediumand large-field according to the variation of the inflaton field while cosmological scales leave the horizon. Small-field models are constructed ...
متن کاملModular Inflation and the Curvaton
Supersymmetric Peccei-Quinn models which provide a suitable candidate for the curvaton field are studied. These models also solve the μ problem, while generating the Peccei-Quinn scale dynamically. The curvaton is a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson corresponding to an angular degree of freedom orthogonal to the axion. Its order parameter increases substantially following a phase transition during i...
