Abstract

We discuss hybrid inflation in supersymmetric flipped SU(5) model such that the cosmic microwave anisotropy is essentially proportional to , where denotes the symmetry breaking scale and ( GeV) is the reduced Planck mass. The magnitude of determined from measurements can be consistent with the value inferred from the evolution of SU(3) and SU(2) gauge couplings. In other words, one could state that flipped SU(5) predicts (more precisely `postdicts') . The scalar spectral index , the scalar to tensor ratio satisfies $r \lapproxeq 10^{-6}$, while $dn_s/d{\rm ln}k \lapproxeq 4\times 10^{-4}$.
