Planck 2018 and brane inflation revisited
Abstract We revisit phenomenological as well as string-theoretical aspects of D-brane inflation cosmological models. Phenomenologically these models stand out on par with α-attractors, as models with Planck-compatible values of n s , moving down to the sweet spot in the data with decreasing value of...

Abstract We revisit phenomenological as well as string-theoretical aspects of D-brane inflation cosmological models. Phenomenologically these models stand out on par with α-attractors, as models with Planck-compatible values of n s , moving down to the sweet spot in the data with decreasing value of r. On the formal side we present a new supersymmetric version of these models in the context of de Sitter supergravity with a nilpotent multiplet and volume modulus stabilization. The geometry of the nilpotent multiplet is evaluated in the framework of string theory. |
