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.

abstract
The previously proposed class of phenomenological inflationary models in which the assumption of inflaton slow-roll is replaced by the more general, constant-roll condition is compared with the most recent cosmological observational data, mainly the Planck ones. Models in this two-parametric class which remain viable appear to be close to the slow-roll ones, and their inflaton potentials are close to (but still different from) that of the natural inflation model. Permitted regions for the two model parameters are presented.

Superhorizon curvature perturbations in hybrid inflation revisited
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.
