Abstract

Motivated by the recent detection of B-mode polarization of CMB by BICEP2 which is possibly of primordial origin, we study large field inflation models which can be obtained from higher-dimensional gauge theories. The constraints from CMB observations on the gauge theory parameters are given, and their naturalness are discussed. Among the models analyzed, Dante’s Inferno model turns out to be the most preferred model in this framework.

The IR obstruction to UV completion for Dante’s Inferno model with higher-dimensional gauge theory origin

Journal Article Furuuchi, Kazuyuki; Koyama, Yoji - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We continue our investigation of large field inflation models obtained from higher-dimensional gauge theories, initiated in our previous study http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2015/02/031. We focus on Dante’s Inferno model which was the most preferred model in our previous analysis. We point out the relevance of the IR obstruction to UV completion, which constrains the form of the potential of the massive vector field, under the current observational upper bound on the tensor to scalar ratio. We also show that in simple examples of the potential arising from DBI action of a D5-brane and that of an NS5-brane that the inflation takes place inmore »« less

Planck 2015 results: XX. Constraints on inflation

Journal Article Ade, P.; Aghanim, N.; Arnaud, M.; ... - Astronomy and Astrophysics

In this paper, we present the implications for cosmic inflation of the Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies in both temperature and polarization based on the full Planck survey, which includes more than twice the integration time of the nominal survey used for the 2013 release papers. The Planck full mission temperature data and a first release of polarization data on large angular scales measure the spectral index of curvature perturbations to be n_s = 0.968 ± 0.006 and tightly constrain its scale dependence to dn_s/ dlnk = -0.003 ± 0.007 when combined with the Planck lensingmore »« less

Wiggly whipped inflation

Journal Article Hazra, Dhiraj; Shafieloo, Arman; Smoot, George - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Motivated by BICEP2 results on the CMB polarization B-mode which imply primordial gravitational waves are produced when the Universe has the expansion rate of about H ≈ 10{sup 14} GeV, and by deviations from a smooth power-law behavior for multipoles ℓ <50 in the CMB temperature anisotropy power spectrum found in the WMAP and Planck experiments, we have expanded our class of large field inflationary models that fit both the BICEP2 and Planck CMB observations consistently. These best-fitted large field models are found to have a transition from a faster roll to the slow roll V(φ)=m{sup 2} φ{sup 2}/2 inflation at a field valuemore »« less

Planck 2018 results

Journal Article Akrami, Y.; Arroja, F.; Ashdown, M.; ... - Astronomy and Astrophysics

We report on the implications for cosmic inflation of the 2018 release of the Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements. The results are fully consistent with those reported using the data from the two previous Planck cosmological releases, but have smaller uncertainties thanks to improvements in the characterization of polarization at low and high multipoles. Planck temperature, polarization, and lensing data determine the spectral index of scalar perturbations to be n_s = 0.9649 ± 0.0042 at 68% CL. We find no evidence for a scale dependence of n_s, either as a running or as a running of the running.more »« less

Topological inflation with large tensor-to-scalar ratio

Journal Article Chung, Yu-Chieh; Lin, Chunshan - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

BICEP2's detection on the primordial B-mode of CMB polarization suggests that inflation occurred around GUT scale, with the tensor-to-scalar ratio r≅0.2. Inspired by this discosvery, we study the topological inflation which was driven by a double/single/no well potential. We show that with proper choice of parameters, all these three types of topological inflationary models could be consistent with the constraints from current observations.
