abstract

Theories beyond the standard model such as string theory motivate low energy effective field theories with several scalar fields which are not only coupled through a potential but also through their kinetic terms. For such theories we derive the general formulae for the running of the spectral indices for the adiabatic, isocurvature and correlation spectra in the case of two field inflation. We also compute the expected non-Gaussianity in such models for specific forms of the potentials. We find that the coupling has little impact on the level of non-Gaussianity during inflation.

    A scaling symmetry in a class of two-field inflation models naturally produces a massless isocurvature field whose self-interactions are suppressed, making primordial non-Gaussianity slow-roll suppressed but with a squeezed limit different from single-field inflation.
