Numerical calcultaion of e-fold number from hilltop with two inflatons

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider a cosmological inflation with two inflatons, ϕϕ and XX. The inflation potential is a hilltop form in the ϕϕ space and XX is a sideway down-fall field in the region ϕ≥mϕ\ge m. In this model, we calculate the ee-fold number numerically starting from the intitial point which is in the vicinity of the hilltop point. Firstly, by varying parameters and initial conditions the inflaton path field φφ for the BICEP2 point, φBCP2φ_{\rm BCP2}, is found to give ns≃0.96 n_s\simeq 0.96 and r≃0.16r\simeq 0.16. Next, from the point φBCP2φ_{\rm BCP2} to the end of inflation the e-fold number is obtained. We find a reasonable set of parameters allowing the e-fold number in the range 50-60.
