Inflationary Dynamics with Runaway Potentials

P. R. Ashcroft, C. van de Bruck, A. -C. Davis

The evolution of two slow--rolling scalar fields with potentials of the form $V=V_0{\varphi }^{-\alpha }\exp (-\beta {\varphi }^m)$ is studied. Considering different values of the parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $m$,…
