Analytical approximation of the scalar spectrum in the ultraslow-roll inflationary models

Abstract: The ultra-slow-roll (USR) inflationary models predict large-amplitude scalar perturbations at small scales which can lead to the primordial black hole production and scalar-induced gravitational waves. In general scalar perturbations in the USR models can only be obtained using numerical method because the usual slow-roll approximation breaks. In this work, we propose an analytical approach to estimate the scalar spectrum which is consistent with the numerical result. We find that the USR inflationary models p… Show more

“…[77]; -Induced GW spectral features: There are cases where the induced GW spectrum may be investigated semi-analytically. These are for example, the low frequency tail [74,78,79], the UV tail [80,81] and the log-normal peak in the primordial spectrum [82]. Furthermore, the primordial spectrum may also present oscillatory features which are captured into the induced GW spectrum [83][84][85][86][87].…”

“…Unfortunately, we are not aware of a general analytical formula for the time integrals (80) unless b ∈ Z, in which case the Bessel functions reduce to spherical Bessel functions and can be written in terms of transcendental functions. This is for example the case of radiation domination b = 0 (w = 1/3), where the general kernel can be found in Ref.…”
