Running spectral index WMAP may give us a hint for an inflation model. (Peiris et al.) on larger scaleson smaller scales 1 year result It is a challenge to build such inflation models. at Nearly 2σ hint of running spectral index

No running ? Slosar et al. pointed out that the running feature is diminished if correct likelihood functions are used. Bridle et al. pointed out that the running feature has marginal evidence only if the first three WMAP multipoles (l =2, 3, 4), which have large cosmic variance, are included in the analysis.

12
Robustness of running in WMAP 3 year results Even without tensor fluctuations, negative running is observed at almost or above 2σlevel. Running feature is robust even if low multipoles data are subtracted in the analysis. Though Ly-alpha data tend to diminish the running, systematic uncertainties are discussed. No tensor fluctuations Large-scale scalar perturbation becomes higher smaller running (Feng et al.) (Meiksin & White)
13
Running in WMAP 3 year results II If χ 2 improves by 2 or more, it is worth introducing a new parameter, according to Akaike’s information criteria (AIC). χ 2 improves by 3.6 (WMAP), or 2.4 (WMAP+SDSS) by introducing a running spectral index. Tegmark et al. Vanilla : Inflation-based ΛCDM model with a power law spectrum How much does the likelihood (χ 2 ) improve by introducing a new parameter? : the running spectral index Though further investigations are necessary, it is interesting and a challenge to build inflation models with such running feature.

32
New inflation We select new inflation as another inflation because New inflation should last about 40 e-folds to make the universe sufficiently large. (Linde, Albrecht & Steinhardt) The reheating temperature is low enough to avoid the gravitino problem. An initial value is set dynamically during smooth hybrid inflation in our model.

Initial value for new inflation Generally speaking, new inflation has an initial value problem. But, in our model, an initial value is set dynamically during smooth hybrid inflation.

After smooth hybrid inflation, ψ and σ oscillate around their respective minima. to lowest order. These oscillating terms induce parametric amplification of and. Anomalous peak due to parametric resonances ~
40
We find no resonant amplification here. These terms induce forced oscillation. Long period oscillation with a frequency. Forced oscillations As a result, is also enhanced due to the last two terms.. For, σ and oscillate with the frequency while ψ and oscillate with the frequency Due to the slight difference between the two frequencies, also acquires a component with a long period oscillation.
41
Large k cutoff is due to the resonant amplification condition. Longwave modes which were outside the horizon at the onset of the oscillation are irrelevant. Height of the peak is sensitive to the dissipation rate of σ and ψ during oscillation. Understandings of the peak structure Long period oscillation comes from the oscillation of

In this particular case, fluctuation peaked at, corresponding to whose abundance is constrained as in order not to overclose the universe. : initial mass fraction of PBHs : peak amplitude of fluctuations PBHs formation In this case, the PBH abundance is sufficiently suppressed. too much PBHs !!
43
Conclusions and Discussion Smooth hybrid inflation in supergravity can reproduce the running spectrum of density fluctuations suggested by WMAP. But, another inflation is necessary to make the universe enough large and hence we take new inflation as a second inflation, which naturally gives low reheating temperature. During an oscillatory phase between double inflation, small-scale fluctuations are amplified due to parametric resonances, which are stretched to the cosmological scales by the second inflation. We have shown that adiabatic density fluctuations of such an inflation can be completely reproduced by looking on it as an effectively single-field model with the potential obtained by inserting the minima of the heavy fields to the original potential.
