动力学引力编织与轴子膨胀

Kinetic Gravity Braiding and axion inflation

Debaprasad Maity

摘要:

我们构造了一类新的具有高阶导数轴子场且服从常移对称性的暴胀模型。在通常的轴子(自然)暴胀中,轴子衰变常数被预测为超普朗克状态,这被认为与有效场论框架不相容。利用一种新的机制,起源于一个更高的衍生动力学重力编织(KGB)的轴子场,我们发现存在一个巨大的参数制度,在我们的模型中,轴子衰变常数可以自然地sub-Planckian。感谢克格勃有效地降低了普朗克常量。这种有效地降低的普朗克尺度为我们提供了进一步降低轴子场滚降其势的速度而不引入超普朗克轴子衰减常数的机制。我们还发现,与广泛的参数值,我们的模型诱导几乎尺度不变的功率谱在CMB实验中观察到的。

英文摘要:

We constructed a new class of inflationary model with the higher derivative axion field which obeys constant shift symmetry. In the usual axion (natural) inflation, the axion decay constant is predicted to be in the super-Planckian regime which is believed to be incompatible with an effective field theory framework. With a novel mechanism originating from a higher derivative kinetic gravity braiding (KGB) of an axion field we found that there exist a huge parameter regime in our model where axion decay constant could be naturally sub-Planckian. Thanks to the KGB which effectively reduces the Planck constant. This effectively reduced Planck scale provides us the mechanism of further lowering down the speed of an axion field rolling down its potential without introducing super-Planckian axion decay constant. We also find that with that wide range of parameter values, our model induces almost scale invariant power spectrum as observed in CMB experiments.
