Abstract

Inflation creates perturbations for the large scale structures in the universe, but it also dilutes everything. Therefore it is pertinent that the end of inflation must explain how to excite the Standard Model {\it dof} along with the dark matter. In this paper we will briefly discuss the role of visible sector inflaton candidates which are embedded within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) and discuss their merit on how well they match the current data from the Planck. Since the inflaton carries the Standard Model charges their decay naturally produces all the relevant {\it dof} with no {\it dark/hidden sector radiation} and no isocurvature fluctuations. We will first discuss a single supersymmetric flat direction model of inflation and demonstrate what parameter space is allowed by the Planck and the LHC. We will also consider where the perturbations are created by another light field which decays after inflation, known as a {\it curvaton}. The late decay of the curvaton can create observable non-Gaussianity. In the end we will discuss the role of a {\it spectator} field whose origin may not lie within the visible sector physics, but its sheer presence during inflation can still create all the perturbations responsible for the large scale structures including possible non-Gaussianity, while the inflaton is embedded within the visible sector which creates all the relevant matter including dark matter, but no dark radiation.

  • In our case we will be investigating a range of the inflaton masses which can accommodate the right handed sneutrino mass close to the low scale supersymmetry, and also yield the correct neutrino masses: [equation] The above range of $h$ also guarantees the curvature perturbation contribution by the inflaton is negligible, see [ref] .

  • The only way it could be satisfied provided both inflaton and curvaton can be embedded within the visible sector, i.e. MSSM, then this problem could be addressed amicably since both the fields would decay into the MSSM dof [ref] .
