Constraining Hybrid Natural Inflation with recent CMB data
J. Alberto Vazquez, Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German +2
We study the Hybrid Natural Inflation (HNI) model and some of its realisations in the light of recent CMB observations, mainly Planck temperature and WMAP-9 polarization, and compa…
Discrete graviton spectrum from super-exponential cup potentials and their application to braneworld physics
Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German, Alfredo Herrera-Aguilar +2
Super-exponential warp factors have been proposed in the context of two-brane models to solve the gauge hierarchy problem of scales by using a compactification scale of the same or…
Testing Hybrid Natural Inflation with BICEP2
Mariana Carrillo-Gonzalez, Gabriel German, Alfredo Herrera-Aguilar +2
We analyse Hybrid Natural Inflation in view of the recent results for the tensor index reported by BICEP2. We find that it predicts a large running of the scalar spectrum which is…
