Low power on large scales in just enough inflation models

arXiv:1202.0698 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.85.103517

Abstract

An early stage of kinetic energy domination for inflation is applied to single-field quadratic and hybrid-type potentials considering only the amount of inflation necessary to solve the problems of the standard cosmological scenario. Using initial conditions inside the 1-sigma interval of the best-fit cosmological parameters for the potentials, low values for the quadrupole component can be obtained.
