Observable induced gravitational waves from an early matter phase
Laila Alabidi, Kazunori Kohri, Misao Sasaki +1
Assuming that inflation is succeeded by a phase of matter domination, which corresponds to a low temperature of reheating , we evaluate the spectra of gravitation…
WMAP9 and the single field models of inflation
Laila Alabidi
Using the latest release from WMAP, I find that for a reasonable number of e-folds the tree-level potential with self coupling power p=3 is now excluded from the 2-sigma region, th…
Large trispectrum in two-field slow-roll inflation
Joseph Elliston, Laila Alabidi, Ian Huston +2
We calculate the conditions required to produce a large local trispectrum during two-field slow-roll inflation. This is done by extending and simplifying the 'heatmap' approach dev…
Observable Spectra of Induced Gravitational Waves from Inflation
Laila Alabidi, Kazunori Kohri, Misao Sasaki +1
Measuring the primordial power spectrum on small scales is a powerful tool in inflation model building, yet constraints from Cosmic Microwave Background measurements alone are insu…
An update on single field models of inflation in light of WMAP7
Laila Alabidi, Ian Huston
In this paper we summarise the status of single field models of inflation in light of the WMAP 7 data release. We find little has changed since the 5 year release, and results are…
How the curvaton scenario, modulated reheating and an inhomogeneous end of inflation are related
Laila Alabidi, Karim A. Malik, Christian T. Byrnes +1
In this paper we analyse three models of the early universe, for which the respective mechanisms for generating the curvature perturbation are considered disparate. We find that in…
