abstract

Trapped inflation has been proposed to provide a successful inflation with a steep potential. We discuss the formation of primordial black holes in the trapped inflationary scenario. We show that primordial black holes are naturally produced during inflation with a steep trapping potential. In particular, we have given a recipe for an inflaton potential with which particle production can induce large non-Gaussian curvature perturbation that leads to the formation of high stellar-mass primordial black holes. These primordial black holes could be dark matter observed by the LIGO detectors through a binary black-hole merger. At the end, we have given an attempt to realize the required inflaton potential in the axion monodromy inflation, and discussed the gravitational waves sourced by the particle production.

Superhorizon curvature perturbations in hybrid inflation revisited

astro-ph.CO · 2026-06-29 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Hybrid inflation produces enhanced curvature perturbations with a broad power spectrum peak featuring k^3 infrared growth and positive f_NL fixed by tachyonic waterfall geometry, potentially accounting for PBH dark matter and LISA-detectable SGWB.

Scalar induced gravitational waves review

gr-qc · 2021-09-03 · unverdicted · novelty 2.0

A review that unifies analytical expressions for scalar-induced gravitational waves and emphasizes calculations for non-radiation-dominated cosmologies.
