Sgoldstino-less inflation and low energy SUSY breaking
Riccardo Argurio, Dries Coone, Lucien Heurtier +1
We assess the range of validity of sgoldstino-less inflation in a scenario of low energy supersymmetry breaking. We first analyze the consistency conditions that an effective theor…

Plateau Inflation from Random Non-Minimal Coupling
Benedict J. Broy, Dries Coone, Diederik Roest
A generic non-minimal coupling can push any higher-order terms of the scalar potential sufficiently far out in field space to yield observationally viable plateau inflation. We pro…

The Hubble Flow of Plateau Inflation
Dries Coone, Diederik Roest, Vincent Vennin
In the absence of CMB precision measurements, a Taylor expansion has often been invoked to parametrize the Hubble flow function during inflation. The standard "horizon flow" proced…
