Kavli Affiliate: Misao Sasaki | First 5 Authors: Atsuhisa Ota, Misao Sasaki, Yi Wang, , | Summary: The inflationary 1-loop tensor power spectrum from an excited spectator scalar field is calculated. Recent studies on primordial black holes suggest that the inflationary curvature perturbation may be huge on small scales. An enhanced curvature perturbation may arise […]
