Inflation Then k=(1+q)(a) ~r/16 0<= multi-parameter expansion in (lnHa ~ lnk)

Dynamics ~ Resolution ~ 10 good e-folds (~10-4Mpc-1 to ~ 1 Mpc-1 LSS) ~10+ parameters? Bond, Contaldi, Kofman, Vaudrevange 07

r(kp) i.e. k is prior dependent now, not then. Large (uniform ), Small

(uniform ln). Tiny (roulette inflation of moduli; almost all string-inspired models)

KKLMMT etc, Quevedo etal, Bond, Kofman, Prokushkin, Vaudrevange 07, Kallosh and Linde 07

General argument: if the inflaton < the Planck mass, then r < .007 (Lyth96 bound)

Inflation now

Dynamical background late-inflaton-field trajectories imprint luminosity distance, angular diameter distance, volume growth, growth rate of density fluctuations

Prior late-inflaton primordial fluctuation information is largely lost because tiny mass

(field sound speed=c?)

late-inflaton may have an imprint on other fields?

New late-inflaton fluctuating field power is tiny

Page 5: Dick Bond

w-trajectories for V(): pNGB example e.g.sorbo et07

For a given quintessence potential V(), we set the “initial conditions” at z=0 and evolve backward in time.

w-trajectories for Ωm (z=0) = 0.27 and (V’/V)2/(16πG) (z=0) = 0.25, the 1-sigma limit, varying the initial

kinetic energy w0 = w(z=0)

Dashed lines are our first 2-param approximation using an a-averaged

s= (V’/V)2/(16πG) and 2 -fitted as.Wild rise solutions

Slow-to-medium-roll solutions

Complicated scenarios: roll-up then roll-down

Early-Exit Scenario: scaling regime info is lost by Hubble damping, i.e.small as

1+w< 0.3 (for 0<z<10) gives a 2-parameter model (as and s):

as <0.3

Page 16: Dick Bond

Comparing 1-2-3-parameter results

Conclusion: for current data, the multi-parameter complications are largely irrelevant (as <0.3):

we cannot reconstruct the quintessence potential

we can only measure the slope s

CMB + SN + WL + LSS +Lyastrajectories are slowly

varying: why the fits are good

Page 17: Dick Bond

Thawing, freezing or non-monotonic?

• Thawing: 1+w monotonic up as z decreases

• Freezing: 1+w monotonic down to 0 as z decreases• ~15% thaw, 8% freeze, most non-monotonic with flat priors

With freezing prior:

With thawing prior:

• the data cannot determine more than 2 w-parameters (+ csound?). general higher order Chebyshev expansion in 1+w as for “inflation-then” =(1+q) is not that useful. Parameter eigenmodes show what is probed

• The w(a)=w0+wa(1-a) phenomenology requires baroque potentials• Philosophy of HBK07: backtrack from now (z=0) all w-trajectories arising from

quintessence (s >0) and the phantom equivalent (s <0); use a 3-parameter model to well-approximate even rather baroque w-trajectories.

• We ignore constraints on Q-density from photon-decoupling and BBN because further trajectory extrapolation is needed. Can include via a prior on Q (a) at z_dec and z_bbn

• For general slow-to-moderate rolling one needs 2 “dynamical parameters” (as, s) & Q to describe w to a few % for the not-too-baroque w-trajectories.

• as is < 0.3 current data (zs >2.3) to <0.21 (zs >3.7) in Planck1yr-CMB+JDEM-SN+DUNE-WL future

In the early-exit scenario, the information stored in as is erased by Hubble friction over the observable range & w can be described by a single parameter s.

• a 3rd param s, (~ds /dlna) is ill-determined now & in a Planck1yr-CMB+JDEM-SN+DUNE-WL future

• To use: given V, compute trajectories, do a-averaged s & test (or simpler s -estimate)• for each given Q-potential, velocity, amp, shape parameters are needed to define a w-trajectory

• current observations are well-centered around the cosmological constant s=0.0+-0.25 • in Planck1yr-CMB+JDEM-SN+DUNE-WL future s to +-0.07• but cannot reconstruct the quintessence potential, just the slope s & hubble drag info• late-inflaton mass is < Planck mass, but not by a lot

• Aside: detailed results depend upon the SN data set used. Best available used here (192 SN), soon CFHT SNLS ~300 SN + ~100 non-CFHTLS. will put all on the same analysis/calibration footing – very important.

• Newest CFHTLS Lensing data is important to narrow the range over just CMB and SN

Inflation then summarythe basic 6 parameter model with no GW allowed fits all of the data OK

Usual GW limits come from adding r with a fixed GW spectrum and no consistency criterion (7 params). Adding minimal consistency does not make that

much difference (7 params)

r (<.28 95%) limit comes from relating high k region of 8 to low k region of GW CL

Uniform priors in (k) ~ r(k): with current data, the scalar power downturns ((k) goes up) at low k if there is freedom in the mode expansion to do this. Adds GW

to compensate, breaks old r limit. T/S (k) can cross unity. But log prior in drives to low r. a B-pol could break this prior dependence, maybe Planck+Spider.

Complexity of trajectories arises in many-moduli string models. Roulette example: 4-cycle complex Kahler moduli in large compact volume Type IIB string theory

TINY r ~ 10-10 if the normalized inflaton < 1 over ~50 e-folds then r < .007

~10 for power law & PNGB inflaton potentials

Prior probabilities on the inflation trajectories are crucial and cannot be decided at this time. Philosophy: be as wide open and least prejudiced as possible

Even with low energy inflation, the prospects are good with Spider and even Planck to either detect the GW-induced B-mode of polarization or set a powerful

upper limit against nearly uniform acceleration. Both have strong Cdn roles. CMBpol
