Improving the Single Scalar Consistency Relation
D. J. Brooker, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
We propose a test of single-scalar inflation based on using the well-measured scalar power spectrum to reconstruct the tensor power spectrum, up to a single integration constant. O…
Precision Predictions for the Primordial Power Spectra of Scalar Potential Models of Inflation
D. J. Brooker, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
We exploit a new numerical technique for evaluating the tree order contributions to the primordial scalar and tensor power spectra for scalar potential models of inflation. Among o…
A Caveat on Building Nonlocal Models of Cosmology
N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
Nonlocal models of cosmology might derive from graviton loop corrections to the effective field equations from the epoch of primordial inflation. Although the Schwinger-Keldysh for…
Computing the Primordial Power Spectra Directly
Maria G. Romania, N. C. Tsamis, R. P. Woodard
The tree order power spectra of primordial inflation depend upon the norm-squared of mode functions which oscillate for early times and then freeze in to constant values. We derive…
